Set your own price - humble ebook bundle

http://www.humblebundle.com/


They say it better than I could:



Humble eBook Bundle is here with an amazing collection of literary tales by award-winning authors!

Pay what you want for Pirate Cinema, Pump Six and Other Stories, Zoo City, Invasion: The Secret World Chronicle (with extras!), Stranger Things Happen, and Magic for Beginners. If you choose to pay more than the average, you will also receive Old Man's War and graphic novel Signal to Noise!

Each of these fantastic digital books is DRM-free and work on your computer, eBook readers, and many mobile devices. Signal to Noise has never been available in digital format before, and Invasion's unabridged version is debuting right here with us!


Bundle buyers can also benefit the Electronic Frontier Foundation, Child's Play Charity, and the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America, three excellent non-profits. (Since the beginning of Humble Bundle, with your generous help we've raised over $7,250,000 for charity!)

On their own, this assortment of reading goodness would normally cost around $52, but Humble eBook Bundle is letting you set the price! Head on over to the site now and pay what you want for this unbeatable collection!

I bought this this morning. I did so knowing that at least two of those book--Magic for Beginners, and Pirate Cinema--are available for free elsewhere, and Old Man's War has been distributed for free in the past. I'm very busy today, or I'd track down how many of them are available elsewhere, just so people know what they're choosing to buy.

I wanted well-formatted epub version of the ones I already had, which were PDFs, and I love the Humble Bundle sets.
