Hard Case Crime epubs
I stumbled across some good news, which doesn't seem to have been advertised on either Hard Case Crime's website, or their publisher's, Titan books - many of the titles are available for sale online. I've started buying mine from Kobo, but I expect they are on other sites as well.
edit: If you are looking on kobo, try searching for titles or author + "titan" - unfortunately, kobo's search functions and listings don't include a way to find every HCC or Titan Books listing - "hard case crimes" isn't helpful, and "titan" appears in hundreds of fantasy and science fiction novels. |

Thanks for posting.
Clicking on the "Click Here To Buy Our Books" link leads to Amazon, and Kindle editions here (some are preorders): http://www.amazon.com/s/qid=12824776...rnid=618072011 If you just put "Titan" in quotes in the Kobo search box you will get a few with Titan in the title but mostly Titan publisher books. |

Excellent! Thanks for the Amazon link! And nice to see the in print titles at Kobobooks. (Kobobooks doesn't display "coming soon" titles.)

You will have to go to kobobooks.com, type in Titan in quotes in the search box and just see if they have them or not. I am in the US and can only see what is available to me.

What title was $15? That is incredible. The highest I saw was the around $8, and it was the two-in-one.
Also, search for "kobo coupons" - there is a 20% off sale going if you look up the code, and also a 35% one-off for the first book you buy. In Canada, with the discounts, I am paying a little more than $5 per book, which I think is a fair price. |

If you are really interested, email hard case crime - the fellow who runs it usually answers, and quickly at that. I'm sure he can tell you if anyone in your region sells HCC ebooks.

I use Books on Board for my ebooks, and I daily search for certain authors.
One of these authors is Donald Hamilton, aka Matt Helm series. Well, BoB has one of the Donald Hamilton novels, not Matt Helm, for sale now. Following the publisher info, it came from Hard Case Crime. I went to the web site and was delighted with what is being published. Had not seen it before. I am hoping with all fingers crossed that they will carry the Matt Helm series. I couldn't find which publishers ended up with the Matt Helm series after all this time and all the buyouts. If anyone knows, please pass it on. AJ |
