Monitoring the kindle story for cheap book deals, trying to complete a set is like collecting pokemon cards.

Cheap Warhammer books are the most elusive rare shiny.

Humble Bundle has a few per year.

Honestly, I was more interested in the Murakami, but $8 CDN for a 134pg ebook is pushing it, so I'll wait.

If you mess with the Wecker, don't be surprised when you get the Weck.

Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik is only 99p in the Kindle store in the UK today (unsure how long it'll be on there for that price).

I can't comment on this book but I loved her latest one, A Deadly Education.

Rebellion Publishing is having a 99p sale. (Works worldwide.) I highly recommend Premee Mohamed's BENEATH THE RISING and A BROKEN DARKNESS:

"Here is light. You will say that it is not a living entity, but you miss the point that it is more, not less. Without occupying space, it fills the universe. It nourishes everything, yet itself feeds upon destruction. We claim to control it, but does it not perhaps cultivate us as a source of food? May it not be that all wood grows so that it can be set ablaze, and that men and women are born to kindle fires?"
―Gene Wolfe, The Citadel of the Autarch

Old school Superman title WORLDS OF KRYPTON is currently free on the Amazons.
I think it was a promo ed for the short lived tv series.

Graphic Audio has another sale on, 50% off everything they produce.
BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE!
...they ALSO have an additional 30% off sale on series sets.
Thus, by example, you can get the entire GOLGOTHA series to date for about $70, which is about $30 less than the equivalent in Audible credits.
Worth a look. I just picked up Myke Cole's SACRED THRONE trilo for $27.
