KB Book of the Day
The Moon in Deep Winter
by Lee Polevoi

$0.99
Kindle Edition published 2008-01-10
Bestseller ranking: 460964

Product Description
This literary thriller revolves around Parker Sloane. When he returns from a dismal foray into third-world cash-smuggling to his childhood home in the woods of New England, it seems he’s seeing his country and his blended stepfamily for the first time—and finding both just as twitchy, desperate, paranoid and unpredictable as the underworld types he thought he’d escaped.

Before he can even unpack, Parker goes head-to-head with his relatives—his tyrannical stepfather, seething younger brother, newly evangelical mother, and his alluring younger half-sister Rita—and with the demons they never exorcised.

Delicately but disastrously, Parker attempts to keep his family from imploding, unaware that they have their own plans for escape. The Moon in Deep Winter combines the dark comedy of the Coen brothers with the doomed lyricism of Denis Johnson, creating an airtight world of homicidal family dysfunction.

Little Blue Whales by Ken Lewis is a marvelous police crime drama set on the Oregon coast. Feel the tension ratchet up as the serial killer who's murdering and mutilating young boys seems to be one step ahead of the police.

A bargain for $3.99.

The Bloodstained Sea:  The US Coast Guard in the Battle of the Atlantic 1941-1944

I've posted this before (it was among the first books I bought for my Kindle!) but it remains $1.99.  A good book for someone interested in naval history.

The Night's Dawn Trilogy by Peter F. Hamilton for $7.99



This book really doesn't violate the "under $5" rule. The "trilogy" was was originally released as six books in the U.S. - each portion of the trilogy was split into two parts. It is currently available in paperback from Amazon as follows:

The Neutronium Alchemist - 1168 pages ($11.55)
The Naked God - 1360 pages ($11.55)
The Reality Dysfunction - 1120 pages ($11.55)
3648 pages total ($34.65)

So that makes this come to $2.66 per book (or $1.33 for the original six parts) - well under $5. This is a H--U--G--E book that will keep a Sci Fi fan busy reading for quite a while.

I'm sure this has been posted in past months but I just came across it on Amazon again so here it is again for the newbies...I've only read the first in the series but enjoyed it and will definitely read the others.  The Lady Julia Grey series by Deanna Raybourn, starts with Silent in the Grave, all three books bundled for $9.99.

There's no picture for this one.

Dark Vampires by Karl Larew is a hilarious spoof on vampire stories. It was like the Three Stooges meet Maxwell Smart and Agent 99. A good deal for $2.95.

Oh - GREAT thread - I am definitely checking out some of these titles.

I've created a listmania of Free or Cheap Kindle Romances. Many are the free ones currently on the bestseller list but I've also found a few fun ones just by digging around Amazon.  I've removed the ones that have gone up in price.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/richpub/listmania/fullview/R1445AC1UQQ3AJ/ref=cm_pdp_lm_title_1

Enjoy

Thanks for the ideas.

The Percy Jackson and the Olympians series has dropped to $4.40 per book for the first four in the series. It's a great series for elementary and middle school age kids. My daughter is in the 6th grade and they are reading it in class.
Sorry, I still suck with the link maker!
