E-Book Pricing Alerts

I guess this isn’t Amazon US or else it only lasted like 5 minutes.

Since the price was given as 99 pence, I’m going to assume it was Amazon UK.

 

[Obsidian_Phil]

Also new ones on sale for 99p (maybe these are the September deals early) are:

DIS
Fear, Itself by James Swallow
The Enterprise War by John Jackson Miller
The Way to the Stars by Una McCormack
Drastic Measures by Dayton Ward
Die Standing by John Jackson Miller

Picard
Firewall by David Mack

It’s curious that all the Vanguard books are on sale for 99p except the first, Harbinger.

They're all still full price in the US.
It might be helpful if we start saying what country we're in since it seems like a lot of these deals are specific to certain countries.

I guess my brain read that as a typo.

UK and they're still available

Firewall is $1.99 in the US.

I am seeing new sales in Canada now but they're all repeats for me - lots of Vanguard and Disco books. I'll keep checking back though because they don't always show up all at once.

 

[Avro Arrow]

So here's the list I'm currently seeing in Canada now that are new this month. All $1.99:

DSC: Drastic Measures
DSC: Fear Itself
DSC: The Way to the Stars
DSC: The Enterprise War
DSC: Die Standing
PIC: Firewall
VAN: Harbinger
VAN: Summon the Thunder
VAN: Reap the Whirlwind
VAN: Open Secrets
VAN: Precipice
VAN: Declassified
VAN: What Judgments Come
VAN: Storming Heaven
VAN: In Tempest's Wake
Star Trek: The Motion Picture Novelization

Sixteen titles, definitely a respectable number, especially compared to last month's six.

But, with my shiny new VPN, I can also accurately see the prices currently on Amazon US too. I have tried to exclude any titles that @tgiokdi mentioned were on sale last month (if I missed any, my apologies). But even with those taken out, there are still a lot more titles on the US side. I'm not entirely sure if all of these are from the "monthly" sales, but here's what I'm seeing right now for the US:

99 cents:

TOS: The More Things Change
DS9: Rising Son
VOY: Seven of Nine
DTI: The Collectors

$1.99:

TOS #49: The Pandora Principle
TOS: Cast No Shadow
TNG #5: Strike Zone
TNG: Day of Honor: Ancient Blood
VOY: The Farther Shore
VOY: Dark Matter: Cloak and Dagger
VOY: Day of Honor: Her Klingon Soul
ENT: Daedalus
DSC: Desperate Hours
DSC: Drastic Measures
DSC: Fear Itself
DSC: The Way to the Stars
DSC: The Enterprise War
DSC: Die Standing
DSC: Somewhere to Belong
SNW: High Country
SNW: Asylum
PIC: Firewall
VAN: Harbinger
VAN: Summon the Thunder
VAN: Reap the Whirlwind
VAN: Open Secrets
VAN: Precipice
VAN: Declassified
VAN: What Judgments Come
VAN: Storming Heaven
VAN: In Tempest's Wake
TTN: Fortune of War
Destiny: Book 2: Mere Mortals
Vulcan's Soul: Exodus
MyrU: Shattered Light
Star Trek: The Motion Picture Novelization

So four 99-cent titles, and 32 $1.99 titles. Again, I don't know for sure if these are all the monthly sales, or if some of them are just the random markdowns that the US sometimes gets, that we don't. But if they are all monthly sales, then it looks like having different sale lists between the US and Canada last month wasn't just a fluke, and may be an ongoing change in direction, with Canada only getting a subset of the US sales each month. (There's nothing currently on the Canadian list that the American list doesn't have.)

As @DWMarch said, I will continue to watch the Canadian side, to see if anything else turns up.

Damn there's actually quite a few books I've been wanting to get as part of this month's sales.
I think I might get Firewall, Somewhere to Belong, and Asylum.

I have Asylum in my Kobo cart. I plan to get it. My library is horrible about getting Star Trek books.
