Please follow this instance’s posted rules of conduct.

This community is inspired by but not connected r/ebookdeals on Reddit.

Its purpose is for readers to share deals that they find on the web for ebooks through well-known retailers. Additionally, if you are an author and have an interest in posting a notice when you have a price drop coming up, please feel free to let us know, and we can include yours as well. Please avoid self-promotional posts without first contacting somebody on the community management team.

Spam, referral, shortened, and affiliate links are not allowed as this is not a community designed to allow members or mods to make money on their deal findings. Links must be as close to vanilla hyperlinks as possible for the retailer. Links must be cleaned or trimmed of tracking information or when posting or they will be removed.

Please limit posts to time-limited discounts of non-public domain items. Books that are at a permanently low price are great, but not appropriate for this community. The same goes for republishings or cleanups of public domain books.

This bewitching and harrowing tale of mystery and survival, and memory and magic, makes the impossible all too real...

I enjoyed this. Pretty standard Gaiman stuff - some magical parallel-world type things, some fairy tale tropes, etc. But I recall it being sweet and enjoyable. Maybe not one of his more life-changing stories but still worth $3 I'm sure.

Where the hell did my copy go...

Yep, I’ve been trying to write more about the deals that I post, and why I am choosing these particular ones and that was basically going to be what I wrote. Gaiman is generally just a phenomenally, talented author, and this is just a solidly enjoyable book. On the scale of “Popcorn versus Change the Way You Think About Something” kind of book, this is almost certainly closer to the popcorn end, but it’s really good popcorn.
