Awesome Lulu and Wildside Press Sales

Haven’t listed any book-related sales in a while — come on, like anyone actually reading this book blog needs more books anyway — but here are a couple in honor of that greatest of American mass consumption holidays, Black Friday:

Lulu.com: The print-on-demand publisher typically has 20% off coupon codes that you can Google pretty much any time you want to buy something from Lulu (serious — don’t ever pay full price at Lulu). But Lulu is now offering a 30% discount from now through November 27: just use discount code DELIRITAS. (That code will also get you 51% off a calendar at Lulu, but I can’t imagine buying anything but a book from them).

Wildside Press: They have a couple very cool specials. First, if you order at least $10 from them (in eBooks, physical book, whatever), you are eligible to receive five randomly selected books from them, you only pay a penny plus shipping. That’s an awesome deal. I did a similar deal with them a few years ago and got two randomly selected books (Arthur O. Friel’s AMAZON NIGHTS collection and J. Allan Dunn’s THE GOLDEN DOLPHIN AND OTHER PIRATE TALES FROM THE PULPS). Just click here for that deal. The second deal is a four-issue e-subscription to Sherlock Holmes Mystery Magazine for just $3.99. Click here for that deal.

have fun reading!

Wildside Press Coupon Codes

It’s been a while since I’ve posted any coupons or discount codes, but here are some I just received from Wildside Books. As always, they have a lot of new fiction available, including many reprints of classic works. Personally, I’m interested in several of their new ebook megapacks, which are a steal at $0.99 each.

Wildside Press Sale and Coupon Code

Wildside Press is having a sale and has just released some new ebooks. How can you go wrong with any announcement that begins “April is Tentacle Month at Wildside Press!”??? They have a number of “megapacks,” which are big ebook collections of previously published stories collected and sold for $0.99, each organized by topic or genre, including science fiction, fantasy, horror, pulp thrillers, etc. Wildside has a new one called the Cthulhu Mythos Megapack. It has a selection of Lovecraft’s key works along with some great stories by Clark Ashton Smith, Robert Bloch, T.E.D. Klein, and many others. Wildside also has two new Cthulhu Mythos collections by Brian Stableford (how amazingly prolific is he!) for the incredibly steep price of $2.99 each. Those are also available as physical books.

Here are the coupon codes:

GET A FREE MEGAPACK with any ebook purchase of $2.95 or more! Enter coupon code MEGAPACK at checkout on the ebook site and you’ll get the megapack you select free.

Save 20% on your next paper book purchase from Wildside’s print book web site, with this coupon. Enter the code WILDSIDE20 at checkout. No minimum purchase. But it’s only good at their book web site.

Lots of great, low-cost reading!
