10 cent Android Apps & Comics Sale

It's the last day of the 10 cent apps in the Android Market. Six of today's (12) choices are also 10 cents at Amazon, with only Majesty: The Fantasy Kingdom Sim in both stores, but still full price at Amazon. This last title was a Free App of the Day back in April and still might fall in price before midnight.

These are the titles that you can pick up in the Amazon Appstore for $0.10:
  • Puffle Launch, by Disney
  • Sentinel 3: Homeworld, by Origin8 Technologies Ltd.
  • Hyper Jump, by Camel Games
  • Color & Draw for kids: Phone Edition, by Tipitap (also works on tablets, but not the KFire)
  • Star Chart, by Escapist Games Limited
  • Camera ZOOM FX, by Androidslide, is not currently compatible with KFire and the Android version has numerous effects packs for free download that are not in the Amazon store. But, for 20 cents total, I just bought both - I get all the effects now on my tablet and hopefully the app will be updated at Amazon to work with the KFire later on.
comiXology is having a sale on DC Comics' Fell comics series. You use the free app, Comics, by comiXology, to view these comics, which are priced at 99 cents per volume. I don't see them at all on the Kindle or in the Amazon Appstore and in paperback they are either out of print or over $10 per volume. Once you pick up the app, they have several free comics you can try out, before committing to buying any -- but the sale on this series ends today, so act fast.

Free Book (EPUB) - Daniel and Daughter

Sony is giving away copies of the Harlequin comicbook Daniel and Daughter ($3.99 Kindle), by Mayu Takayama and Lucy Gordon. This is a large download, 17MB on the Sony (although only half that on the Kindle) and I expect it will look best on a PC or iPad screen, rather than an ereader device. It is in the Japanese Manga style, so isn't for everyone.

Book Description
When she was 16, photographer Lee went to Gretna Green, the "Elopement Capital of Scotland," where she could get married without her parents' consent. However, she soon divorces, taking her daughter with her. She has had enough of men, but 13 years later, she meets Daniel, who tries everything in his power to seduce her. Meanwhile, Lee's brother is in a passionate relationship with Daniel's daughter. The two lovers decide to elope to Gretna Green just as Lee did all those years ago. Lee chases after them with a bitter feeling in her heart...
