I read the first three and enjoyed them. I had already pre-ordered the fourth one and the price has been adjusted to 99 cents.

Holy crap, The Da Vinci Code is free! I don't know for how long, never seen a book of this mainstream popularity go free.

A couple of Anne O' Brien Kindle deals:

The Forbidden Queen
UK £1.99
US $3.03

Devil's Consort
UK £1.09
US $1.66

Apologies if not available in other regions :(

I've never read anything by this author, but I suppose at this price it's worth a try!

Phhhht. I'm getting a $9.95 price on the US site. I own a dead tree copy, but a kindle version would have been worth $2. That font size is terrifying...
At home with a good book and the cat...

Neither of the US ones are available for purchase. Odd that.

For me it says The Forbidden Queen $1.99 and Devil's Consort $7.01 go figure :0
