Another new month? Where do they come from? New #UKSFFBookBargains Thread. NB: Amazon only. Kobo will follow, but they don't update straight away. Iron Gold by Pierce Brown. I know people like them. Not my taste. www.amazon.co.uk/Iron-Gold-ex...

Wyrd Sisters by @terryandrob.bsky.social. This is where Pratchett really hits his stride. If you haven't read it, you really should. www.amazon.co.uk/Wyrd-Sisters...

Moon Over Soho by @benaaronovitch.bsky.social, which I have read and swear by. Nice to see further volumes in the series popping up. www.amazon.co.uk/Moon-Over-So...

City of Last Chances, our first @aptshadow.bsky.social this month. Wonderful book. When I got it on kindle, it came with a honking discount on the superb audible reading. note this is £1.49 rather than the ususal 99p. Worth it. www.amazon.co.uk/City-Last-Ch...

Another @joeabercrombie.com. Book three of a sequence (which actually I think the other might have been) but perhaps worth banking. www.amazon.co.uk/Half-War-Sha...

Excalibur by Bernard Cornwall. Historically kind of accurate Arthurian with one of the best fakeouts I've ever read in such books. www.amazon.co.uk/Excalibur-No...

And a @scalzi.com . There's always a Scalzi in the sale. Book two of an entertaining trilogy. Worth reading, worth getting since it's cheap and watching for the others to come up. www.amazon.co.uk/Consuming-Fi...

And another @aptshadow.bsky.social, Dragonfly Falling, the second of the Shadows of the Apt series. Confess I have not read this, but I have massive respect for Adrian's writing and so should, I'm just a bit scared of starting a 10 part series. www.amazon.co.uk/Dragonfly-Fa...
