Clive Barker's Abarat 1&2 are on sale:

Abarat is $3 at Amazon, B&N and Kobo US.

Quote:
A journey beyond imagination is about to unfold...

It begins in Chickentown, USA. There lives Candy Quackenbush, her heart bursting for some clue as to what her future might hold.

When the answer comes, it’s not one she expects.

Welcome to the Abarat, a vast archipelago where every island is a different hour of the day. Candy has a place in this extraordinary land: She is here to help save the Abarat from the dark forces that are stirring at its heart—forces older than Time itself, and more evil than anything Candy has ever encountered. She’s a strange heroine, she knows. But this is a strange world.

And in the Abarat, all things are possible.
Abarat: Days of Magic, Nights of War is $2 at Amazon, B&N and Kobo US.

Quote:
A young hero discovers her secret past as warlike tensions mount in this YA fantasy series written and illustrated by the author of The Thief of Always.

In the archipelago of Abarat, each island is governed by a different hour of the day. But the Lord of Midnight is determined to rule them all. Ever since Candy Quackenbush arrived here from Chickentown, Minnesota, she’s been caught up in his devious schemes. But Candy’s adventures in the Abarat are getting stranger by the hour.

Why has the Lord of Midnight sent his henchman after her? Why can she suddenly speak words of magic? Why is this world familiar?

Candy and her companions must solve the mystery of her past before the forces of Night and Day clash and Absolute Midnight descends upon the islands. A final war is about to begin...
