kindkitLethe Press, which publishes mainstream and genre fiction, mostly by LGBT authors about LGBT characters, is having a fantastic sale through the month of March. They've made their entire catalogue available as e-books for $1.50 each. You have to buy at least three books to get that price, but that's the only condition. And it's not hard--I tend to be picky, and I bought nine.
Among the titles are Melissa Scott's Astreiant series and her Death by Silver series, both of which I recommend highly, as well as a couple of her older books. I think all fantasy fans should read the Astreiant books, because the worldbuilding is just that good.
The website unfortunately doesn't do a great job of explaining how to get your books. You just click the "add to cart" button, BUT when you get to the checkout screen, there's a space for "notes" where you need to say what e-book format you want. And be sure you give a working e-mail address, because after you submit your payment, what you get is an e-mail from the publisher with all the books attached. (Not knowing this, I got quite irked yesterday when I didn't get an immediate download link like I expected. I sent in a support request, and Steve Berman, the publisher, kindly fixed it all--I hadn't said which format I needed, either--and threw in a free novel too. But I don't want anyone else to buy a bunch of books and then go "What the hell, where's my download?")
