Oh yes, I was hoping you'd see it. I know you've been looking for good stuff to read for a while.

FYI, I found 3 books in the list that were free:

  • Groom of the Tyrannosaur Queen: a time-travel romance
  • On Basilisk Station (Honor Harrington Book 1)
  • RawJack: A Superheroes v. Sorcerers Future Fantasy Action Novel

There are a few others that were marked free but were not, and at least one of them said it would be flipping to free later this week.

Honor Harrington for free? I missed that, that's going right on the pile.

Found it originally linked on Vox Day's blog. Based Books galore, I recommend several of the authors, particularly Jon Del Arroz, Vox Day and Milo James Fowler.

I just bought twenty bucks worth. If you're like me and bemoan the crappy state of literature these days, this is a good chance to support based authors and get ahold of stuff worth reading. I plan to start my teenage daughter on several of these.

Enjoy!

Thanks! I’ve been meaning to check out Vox Day’s Arkhaven. I watch Del Arroz on YouTube and bought one of his books. Never heard of Fowler

So is it links to Amazon or am I missing a storefront? I've gotten a little more receptive to eBooks but don't like Kindle so was curious if I was missing something.

I'll throw a few on the list and try them out. Any suggestions? At the very least I should be able to assume that even though the cover looks gay the book won't be full of it.

Kindle links yes. The substack organizes and invites the authors for the sale as best I can tell.

If you don't already have a copy of Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire then getting an e book copy for a dollar is practically stealing.

I didn't see that but I was just scrolling through, that's one I wanted to buy. I was going to get a hardcover sometime, but it wouldn't be bad to look through ahead of time.

Probably grab a couple of these Milo James Fowler, you mentioned, I've never read but I've been way more interested in mystery and whatever you'd call a Tom Clancy style book lately. Worth a shot for a buck. He's got links to sites that sell DRM free ePubs too.

Update to my post last week: The two Sword and 70's books on the list and Fade are now also free.

Thanks for the link. Some of these sound interesting. Though, this has got to be the worst collection of cover art I've ever seen.

Ok but has anyone read any of these? There's a lot on display here, so recommendations would be nice if anyone's already familiar with some of the work here.
