Kindle Dollar Days Continue

If you read Shadow of the Ghost (previously $0.89, now $2.80), then you'll want to get the second book of the Lord of Chaos Trilogy, Legacy of the Ghost, which the author, Tanner Artesz, has marked at an introductory price of $0.89 for the month of June.

The Nine and The Council of Darkness begin seeking replacements for the members they had lost during the conflict with Rachk'sha. Meanwhile, Ky prepares the Inheritance Ceremony he had to deny his triplets to protect them. Not wishing to see harm come to his children again, he, with The Lady's help, plans a uniquely special gift.

Unknown to Ky, the old goblin had been absorbing residual magic by tracing the runes Ky placed on the walls of the goblin caves many years ago. Now the goblin craves magical knowledge and finds Mistress, an albino necromancer. Together, they plan to become gods in their own right. To do this, they must steal the power of one of the current gods. In the process they carve a path of deception, betrayal, and blood.

The Grove by John Rector

The last time farmer Dexter McCray went off his medication, someone wound up dead. So, after waking from an alcoholic blackout to discover his tractor stuck in a ditch and the body of a teenage girl in the cottonwood grove bordering his cornfield, things look worryingly familiar.

With no alibi and a creeping suspicion that he might indeed be guilty, Dexter decides to investigate the crime himself. He can't tell anybody. Not his friend, the sheriff, who keeps offering to help him winch his tractor out of the ditch. Nor his estranged wife, whose love he's desperate to win back. And certainly not the Tollivers, his redneck neighbors.

Fortunately, Dexter's not entirely alone. He has some help.

In the shape of the dead girl herself.

Richard Russell is hoping to pick up a few readers and maybe a few reviews for his books (both those he's written and some he's published for others). He's reduced the price on a number of them from $3.19 to 99 cents each:

California Tumbles Into the Sea is the initial book in a series about Nick Carlson and his family and friends. The rest are: On a Morning from a Bogart Movie, Dont Forget to Say Grace, Secrets are the Things We Grew and Little GTO. Nick is a journalist/writer just returned from Southeast Asia in this first book. He finds that his old girlfriend's brother has been convicted of a murder in his old hometown and a major magazine wants him to investigate. Crime/Mystery.

Modern Problems is the first book of a series by "Dorian Taylor". This first book is short stories, some of which appeared in the Blue Review and a novella all of which is pretty experimental stuff. It's followed by Top 40, a nouveau roman, also pretty experimental. Literary fiction.

The Apocryphon (Book One Corinthus) is a modern Gnostic fable that concerns a man who found the secret to living the same life, time and again and the challenges he faces doing this. Paranormal Romance.

Finally The Friends of Fu Manchu is a collection of turn of the nineteenth century villains and is actually the second such collection he has published, the first The Colleagues of Professor Van Helsing. Following these two is Sinister Sisters, which covers the distaff side of Gothic/Victorian Vampires, Lady Geraldine, through Lady Ducayne, the female vampire in the 19th century. Vintage crime.

If you missed The Legend of Witch Bane (The Witch Bane Saga) by Kevis Hendrickson when it was on sale a couple of months back, this weekend is your chance to grab it for 99 cents once again. His Rogue Hunter (Chronicles of the Rogue Hunter) is also a bargain priced $3.19, but is set in a different world than Witch Bane.

Not under a dollar, but close, there is now a ninth book in Brendan Carroll's The Red Cross of Gold series, IX: The Queen of the Abyss. Like the rest of the series, this one is priced at $1.59 (at least, for now).
