Wow, when I went to add Kindle's DoD, I saw that there wasn't a 2016 thread. Is that true or did I just miss it? In any case, Elizabeth Chadwick's " To Defy a King" is only $1.99 today on Amazon. Jan Last Edited on: 1/31/17 3:32 PM ET - Total times edited: 1 |

If you want to start a new series-might take a look at Amazon today. Lots of $1.99 series. In HF land, I was able to pick up the latest in the Hangman's Daughter series. Oliver Potzsch's 5 book series is $1.99 today. I was able to get "The Werewolf of Bamberg". Heard really good things from some of you about this series but I haven't started it yet.... But the one I'm really excited about is "Whiskey Rebels" by David Liss. Takes place just after the American Revolution(y'all know that's a favorite for me). Nice drop from $8.99 to $1.99. Jan |

@Jan I read the first Hangman's Daughter and have the second on my Kindle. Seems like a good time to pick up the rest. Whiskey Rebels will not disappoint. |

Another HF deal but I need some input on this one. Reviews are all over the place on Amazon and mention the use of a ghost writer-who is an author I've read in the past. Does anyone have any insight? "The Golden Lion" by Wilbur Smith(and Giles Kristian???) is $1.99. Sounds right up my alley with my love of Cornwell and Angus but the reviews have me gun shy. Jan |

Wilbur Smith is one of my favorite authors. He spins a darn good yarn! I have some books on my shelf by Giles Kristan but haven't read them yet. |

Thanks for the input. "Golden Lion" is still on sale today-think I'll pick it up. Jan |

Not a time period I usually go for, but this one looks really interesting. From Sande Boritz Berger "The Sweetness". World War II-parallel lives of two Jewish cousins-one a teenager in America; one a young girl in Europe. It's .99 today at Amazon. |

This one has a wish list here at PBS. Immortality, thriller, 16th century Florence to present day Paris. Haven't read the author but it does look different and interesting. $.99 at Amazon. M. J. Rose's "Collector of Dying Breaths". |

I have several of Tony Riches books on my Amazon wish list. This one had a price drop today-ancient Wales, 2 Kings fighting for a crown-"Queen Sacrifice" is $.99 today. |

High seas adventure tale-smugglers'. Never read this author but the premise sounds good. Anyone familiar with it? And FREE definitely works for the budget..... North Carolina 1765 Sara Whitford "Smuggler's Gambit"-free today on Amazon. |

This trilogy has been such fun. Jack Absolute is like James Bond in 18th century scarlet regimentals. Been waiting almost 2 years for the 3rd installment to drop in price and today it did. From $9.99 to $2.99 for "Absolute Honor" (Jack Absolute #3). Yay! |

I could not get the link to print here - kept telling me Request Entity too large no matter what I did but for today, The Splendor Falls by Kearsley is 1.99 in case you don't have it yet. |

I can highly recommend this one. It's Susan Fraser King's "Lady Macbeth". It's an Amazon DoD for $1.99. Forget your Shakespeare-this is the "real" Lady Macbeth. 60 reviews-4.5 stars on Amazon. Jan |

OOOH Jan - I think I'll pick that one up for sure! |
