Ebook Deals
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 is such a good book. I have read it multiple times over multiple years and it's one that I just come back to when I want something to read and I'm not sure exactly what I want to read. I would highly, highly recommend this book if you have not read it. It's so good.
I love learning how people read.
When I love a book, I don’t reread it but instead look for the writers other books.
The next from Weir that I read was called Project Hail Mary — and I loved it. Surely not as “relatable” as The Martian, it was simply exciting and had an unexpectedly delighting “bro-mance” — don’t want to spoil anything.
Have you read it?
I've read it as well and it was really good.
Hey— someone else is on at this moment! Do you know who our Mods are or the person who runs this instance?
Nope, sorry
Thank you. I’m pretty new to the Fediverse. I’ll move us back to our original thread. After Project Hail Mary I read a novel by Weir about a colony on the moon… can’t recall the title. All I know is that I abandoned the book because the social problems of earth were recreated on the moon and I just kept thinking, what’s the point of having a colony on the moon if people are still going to be shitty to one another.
I just didn’t “believe” it. And as you know from Project Hail Mary, I can believe some pretty far fetched stuff.
Do you know this moon colony book?
Artemis. I read that and enjoyed it to. Gangsters on the moon.
Definitely on the list of must read modern sci-fi.
