Long Utopia (The Long Earth Book 4)
by Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter is $1.99 at Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Long-Utopia-Ea...ds=Long+utopia Below is the blurb: The fourth novel in Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter’s internationally bestselling “Long Earth” series, hailed as “a brilliant science fiction collaboration . . . a love letter to all Pratchett fans, readers, and lovers of wonder everywhere” (Io9). 2045-2059. Human society continues to evolve on Datum Earth, its battered and weary origin planet, as the spread of humanity progresses throughout the many Earths beyond. Lobsang, now an elderly and complex AI, suffers a breakdown, and disguised as a human attempts to live a “normal” life on one of the millions of Long Earth worlds. His old friend, Joshua, now in his fifties, searches for his father and discovers a heretofore unknown family history. And the super-intelligent post-humans known as “the Next” continue to adapt to life among “lesser” humans. But an alarming new challenge looms. An alien planet has somehow become “entangled” with one of the Long Earth worlds and, as Lobsang and Joshua learn, its voracious denizens intend to capture, conquer, and colonize the new universe—the Long Earth—they have inadvertently discovered. World-building, the intersection of universes, the coexistence of diverse species, and the cosmic meaning of the Long Earth itself are among the mind-expanding themes explored in this exciting new installment of Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter's extraordinary Long Earth series. |

The Dragon's Path by Daniel Abraham is $1.99 at Amazon US. It is the first book of The Dagger and the Coin series.
This series any good? I think I have heard good things about it and the Long Price Quartet. I am currently in between books and deciding what to read next. http://www.amazon.com/Dragons-Path-D...=UTF8&qid=&sr= |

Quicksilver by Neal Stephenson is also $1.99 at Amazon US. This is a doorstop book that is the first of his Baroque Cycle. I have read them and can definitely recommend them if you want a funny and interesting tale about the scientific revolution.

This edition of The Dragon's Path also includes the full text of Leviathan Wakes, the first book in the sci-fi series Abraham co-writes with Ty Franck under the name James S. A. Corey. So you get two books for two bucks. Note that some editions of Leviathan Wakes likewise include the full text of The Dragon's Path, so check your libraries to make sure you're not inadvertently double-dipping. |

Note FizzyWater observes this is probably a novella and thus the price is unsurprising.
Seanan McGuire's Every Heart a Doorway is available for pre-order at Amazon US, for $2.99. Releases on April 5th. I believe this is the first in another new series for her (does the woman sleep?): Quote:

Thanks for pointing this out - it's Tor.com, which I think is what they're using as their novella imprint. I figured it was just the first of McGuire's jillion novels for the year, should've looked closer.

It is. The book is part of Tor.com's novella line, and the digital editions of all titles in that series are always $2.99. (They also do bundles with all three of a given month's novellas for $6.99.)
