How interesting. Two different editions. But your link seems to be the same as my link. That's strange.

UK only: Three Science Fiction & Fantasy reads are just £0.99 each:
Tooth and Claw by Jo Walton Stolen Away by Alyxandra Harvey Sanctum by Sarah Fine. (I really liked Jo Walton's Farthing alternate history. I don't think I can resist this, to see what she does with a completely different setup.) Last edited by pdurrant; 04-04-2013 at 05:47 AM. |

(But you do kind of have to like the idea of Austen-esque Regency mannerpunk starring dragons to begin with, so YMMV.) |

Free on Kobo-Lightspeed Magazine, August 2012
'Lightspeed is an online science fiction and fantasy magazine. In its pages, you will find science fiction: from near-future, sociological soft SF, to far-future, star-spanning hard SF—and fantasy: from epic fantasy, sword-and-sorcery, and contemporary urban tales, to magical realism, science-fantasy, and folktales. In our August 2012 issue, we have original fantasy by Kat Howard (“Breaking the Frame”) and Linda Nagata (“A Moment Before It Struck”), along with fantasy reprints by Wil McCarthy (“The Necromancer in Love”) and Delia Sherman (“Cotillion”). Plus, we’ll have original science fiction by 2012 Nebula Award-winner Ken Liu (“The Bookmaking Habits of Select Species”) and a collaboration between Caroline M. Yoachim and Tina Connolly (“Flash Bang Remember”), and SF reprints by io9’s Charlie Jane Anders (“Love Might Be Too Strong a Word”) and award-winning author Michael Swanwick (“Slow Life”). For our ebook readers, our ebook-exclusive novella is “A Separate War” by Joe Haldeman, and we have an excerpt of Kitty Steals the Show, the new Kitty Norville novel by bestselling author Carrie Vaughn. All that, plus our usual assortment of author and artist spotlights, and feature interviews with bestselling authors Kim Stanley Robinson and Seanan McGuire (a/k/a Mira Grant).' http://www.kobobooks.com/ebook/b/boo...TDDdNmGmrsS8lg |
