Unable to download. Author's Facebook page has similar posts. Some say server issues.
Also, Night Shade Books is being sold due to financial difficulties. |

I can't download it either. Whatever the problem is, it's not specific to this book or Night Shade - I can't download anything in my nook library right now.

B&N has apparently managed to reboot their DRM servers (when I originally posted, the servers for checking your account info were also offline, as I found when I tried to check that my CC info was current; those came up early, but the DRM servers stayed down).
I am pretty sure that was their issue, as the error msg from the tablet specifically referred to the inability to issue the license for the book. Anyway ... now working, so download away. |

Good Omens ($1.99 Kindle, B&N), by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, is the Nook Daily Find, price matched on Kindle (it was already discounted to $3.99 as part of the Monthly $3.99 or Less Sale).

The Spiral Tattoo by Michael J Parry, published by Sky Warrior Books, is 0.99 at Kobo right now. No idea how long it lasts, since I think it is primarily due to Kobo lagging when it comes to raising the price again. ( It is 2.99 at Smashwords.)
The Blurb: Law comes in two sizes: six inches and eight feet. Elanore, the eight-foot tall troll, and Gurt, the six-inch tall (don't you dare call me a fairy) Eleinu, both guardsmen in the city of Delvenport, tackle their most baffling case yet. When they find a dead waitress, naked except for an intricate tattoo in a spiral across her body, they're launched into an adventure ... |

I don't know whether it's old news or not. I just saw that Mistborn Trilogy by Brandon Sanderson is priced $13.08 at Amazon. (B&N is $22.99 and Kobob $20.69)

Just FYI, the individual Mistborn books are down to $5.99. If you picked up #1 about 5 years ago, when it was free, then it's just under $12 to just pick up the next two...

If you use some of the 30% codes going in the kobobooks.com discount codes thread you can get the individual Mistborn books for 3.74 Euros ($4.85) each at Kobo France.

That's a good deal. It would certainly have tempted me if it was available in the UK. I'm not sure whether to be pleased or not!

Thanks! Don |
