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.

Just out of curiosity, do you have a print version of your book as well?

Kind,
I see Arkhan posted before I could. Yes there's a print version as well for $10.99 (that's as cheap as I could make it) 402 pages. Either follow Arkhan's link or just type in the title at Amazon.

Kindgirl,
Why thank you! I can't say I have been called charming many times in my life! Haha. But yes, if you like Goodkind you are going to like it. I know Terry by the way.....not WELL, but we do know each other. He even has artwork of mine hanging in his home. He also has Mighty Hammer Down on his bookshelf! Quite an honor.

Arkhan (and everyone else),
Yes, the Kindle version has a code in it that you can type into the website for all the free goodies. For the paperback, just type in the UPC code. (See my signature for the list of free goodies)

Tanner,
Welcome to kindleboards my friend!

Yeah, I would imagine being acknowledged by a peer is quite exhilarating. Especially one that is so well known.

Welcome to KB, Tanner. I've just added your book to my ever-growing list of books waiting to be read on my Kindle, thanks for letting us know about it and for the intro price! Smiley

And David, I finally got around to adding yours as well, so knock another one off your number of however many you have left at the low price. Smiley  Thanks for the offer!

Tanner - welcome to the kindleboards.  Please go to the Intro/Welcome thread and tell us some more about you, other than you are an author.  I just one-clicked on your book.  I find the authors here are so much better than some others.

David - I have your book in my que - probably this weekend or Monday.  Depends on if the DH wants to watch a movie, can't read well with movies on, but can with basketball, baseball, golf, etc., etc., etc.

This looks like a good Sci-fi short story collection...


$0.95

13 stories that take you to the edge of what it means to be human:
New Beginnings - You can't repeat the past, even when you have a carbon copy
Survival of the fittest - Does survival of the fittest always mean survival of the species?
Banking on hope - Don't offer to help unless you know EXACTLY what they're asking for
The Hunter and the Hunted - Better ability doesn't make for better people
Double Trouble - What if all your problems really WERE your father's fault?
Breathing Room - A sigh of relief could be your last breath
Church of the Called - Crazy cults may be more than they seem
Cathedral - Even genetically engineered geniuses have their problems
Moment of Humanity - Humanity's children will only survive if they can find something in common
The Ghosts of Tedjai - Ghosts come in all forms, and on all worlds
Denny - Beware the bum
Kyoto+10 - All that work for a burger
Gone in a Flash - Can suicide be a valid life choice?

I haven't read it, but it is on my list for when I get my Kindle!

The (7) Amazon reviews are all positive.

I have passed the 50 copies sold, but have decided to keep the price at $.99 until at least March 1st. I want as many readers as I can get, and you're a cool bunch of people, so the sale goes on.....for a while.  Cool

For anyone wanting to read Alex Kava's Maggie O'Dell series this bundle is 18.12.  It contains the first five of the series, (the sixth has just come out), plus a extra book.  The price is better than buying those six book on their own.

Oh, I love Maeve Binchy's books! Thank you!
I discovered Maeve Binchy a couple of years ago when I was tired of reading Rosamunde Pilcher over and over and over and wanting someone new. 
Last night, while playing around on Amazon, I found author Marcia Willett.  Her writing has been likened to Binchy and Pilcher.  I downloaded a sample last night.  Not all of her books are kindlized.  Keeping my fingers crossed that they get to the rest of them. 
5.59  5.59 9.99  6.29

The second one for 5.59 is titled A Summer In the Country.  No picture available.

Thanks for this. I was wondering why I couldn't seem to find "bundled" books.  Huh
