Not showing as free for me, Amazon UK or US.

And if it is, I'm going to grumble as I bought the first this week.

That's weird. I just checked again, Amazon US, and it's free. I think Amazon has gotten more canny lately at preventing people who live in one zone from skipping into another for a better price. Drives me crazy when stuff I really want is not even available in the US but it is in the UK.

However, according to my publisher, prices changes made in one zone can take more than a week to migrate across to all of them. For instance, my novel took a week to be available in Australia and two weeks to be available in the UK. So maybe check back in a week or so?

Bit late now

Thanks for the info, though.

I've not read it yet, but it looks like one of the few traditional/historical fantasy books with lesbian characters, so that might be good for some.

Simply change your ip address using a free proxy so you can make Amazon believe you live in the right territorial zone when you download the ebook...

Yeah, just bought the book myself after a cruise over the free copy.

One post-Xmas offer that won't be there long: the SF Gateway is offering, until January 3rd, all of its books for £2.99. LINK.

Thanks for the tip on this one. I was wondering about this series, and just grabbed it for 99 cents.

Leviathan Wakes by James S.A. Corey can be bought for $2.99 for both Kindle and from B&N. Keep in mind that this e-book comes bundled with an e-ARC of Abraham's The Dragon's Path, so you are getting two books for $2.99.

That's an absolute steal, I paid £13 for each one.
