Somehow, I owned it already.

Me too. Thhat’s because @JoshL flagged it last time it was on sale.
Generally if I go to buy a Kindle book only to discover I’ve already purchased it on sale a year or more earlier and just not read it yet, it’s because it had been flagged earlier in this, my favorite of retail topics. :)
Just one day left, but here’s a space opera bundle. I know one of the authors, so I jumped in at the get-all-ten threshold. Not sure of the quality but I love me some space opera.
I didn’t know there was a Nexus novel. I loved the comic back in the day.
Any of these free books on Amazon worth getting?
I remember reading the two Jules Verne books when I was young, but too young to remember them now. I was a little older when I read the two Mark Twain books, and I remember those, and enjoyed them.
Holy crap, I didn’t know there was a Nexus novel either. I feel like it wouldn’t be quite the same without Steve Rude’s art but I kinda need to check that out!
Oh wow, this bundle looks pretty great too -
StoryBundle
95 books about video games? Some of those have got to be good, right? I wonder if it’s a pain in the ass to even claim 95 books though.
I believe Storybundle usually has a “download everything at once zipped” button. Can’t 100% confirm because I haven’t bought from them in a while.
I’m personally disinclined to buy any bundle Kevin J. Anderson has curated because a) they usually include at least one of his books and b) I think he’s a terrible writer and likely to have bad taste in books.
Though, to be clear, the storybundle I linked to is curated by someone else.
Yes, it was the science fiction bundle he curated.
Sorry but no, the science fiction bundle I linked to The Space Opera Odyssey Bundle was curated by Robert Jeschonek. It includes Kevin Anderson fiction, but he did not curate it. (And it ends today!)
He and Dean Wesley Smith and Kathryn Rusch usually have books in each others bundles. Rusch is a decent writer. The other two not so much. I would be disinclined to buy as well.
The Boss Fight Books stuff is cool, and I saw some stuff from writers I recognize and would be interested in reading books from, but I’m not sure if I want to spend $30 for the full bundle when there’s a lot of stuff in there I’d never look at.
I’m thumbing through some of them, they look pretty good to me. Entire books about point and click adventure games and ancient shoot 'em ups, it’s like they made a bundle just for me!
Finished it last night just after midnight. The massive confusion after Gideon the Ninth didn’t start resolving until Act 5.
Sets up book 3 nicely. Liked it, but think I need may still need a Cliff’s Notes summary to be sure I fully understood WTH happened.

All of Hugh Howey’s Silo Saga for $5. Damn good deal on like, the self-published success story. Hugh Howey is so good I’ve given more time than i should to self-published sci-fi at large, which remains mostly garbage.
Cool, sounds interesting and I’m happy to take a ringing endorsement of that strength. Bought. I’ll be sure to blame you if I don’t enjoy it. ;)

I’ll second the endorsement. Maybe don’t read all three books straight through, 1000 pages in that universe gets pretty grim.
My brother sent me this link… a bunch of free or 1$ fantasy kindle books:
No idea if anything there is worth reading.
