The Unusual Heroes Bundle - Curated by Kristine Kathryn Rusch:

Heroes. They save the world. Or their world. Or the people they love. And they do it in unexpected ways. The culture teaches us to look for heroes in the square-jawed alpha male, but the true heroes are unexpected. They step up from their mundane lives to take on vast threats…and defeat them. In this StoryBundle, you will find nearly a dozen heroes, none of whom would have described themselves as heroic at the start of their adventure. Join them in saving a little corner of the world by picking up a bundle and donating to World Central Kitchen, which saves corners of our world, every single day.

SELECTED REVIEWS

The Slots of Saturn by Dean Wesley Smith

"[The Poker Boy] series is unlike anything else out there. It's quirky and a lot of fun."

– Amazing Stories

The Fates Trilogy by Kristine Grayson

"Zany and over-the-top, this playful novel is a delight."

– Publishers Weekly

Recovery Man by Kristine Kathryn Rusch

"Rusch continues her provocative interplanetary detective series with healthy doses of planet-hopping intrigue, heady legal dilemmas and well-drawn characters."

– Publishers Weekly

It Wants Us Alive by Rebecca Cantrell

"Rebecca Cantrell pivots with her latest thriller IT WANTS US ALIVE into a bloody landscape of a world under siege. If Lovecraft had crafted a modern story with a conflicted female hero, it might look very much like this throat-clutching story of horror and mayhem. Lightning-paced, with characters that grab at your heart, every page demands the next one be turned until the story finally lets you go. Don't miss this stunning turn by an award-winning author."

– James Rollins, #1 New York Times bestseller

Stowe Away by Mark Leslie

"Mark Leslie delivers another trainload of fun with the novella Stowe Away. Hurtling trains, baddies roaming, full moons nearing, precocious peeps in need of a hairy hero...Very enjoyable for ages 13 to 113!"

– Mick Halpin

Queen of Sand and Stone by Leigh Saunders

"…a rich and interesting world of desert denizens who, with their new queen, face not only the constant threat of deadly sandstorm but also changes in the desert that will forever change their world.…"

– Derek Dodson

The Feyland Series: Books 1-3 by Anthea Sharp

"Ms. Sharp is a master storyteller... The Feyland books have found a prized place on my all-time favorite books list."

– Rebecca McKinnon, The Crooked Word

Blast From the Past by Annie Reed

"Annie Reed is considered by many to be one of the best new writers appearing in fiction."

– Dean Wesley Smith, Editor, PULPHOUSE FICTION MAGAZINE

Zero DRM. There's no DRM on any of our books. None. Why? For one, we don't believe DRM actually stops people from sharing what they want to share. Second, and most importantly, we don't believe we should be treating our customers as criminals. So go ahead and put these on your tablets, Kindles and smartphones, but if a friend wants to read the bundle, please have them buy one for themselves. With pay-what-you-want, we believe there's a price for everyone. Or better yet, buy one for them as a gift. Help support indie authors!

Support nonprofits. Best of all, you can also give a portion of the proceeds from each bundle to charity. To learn more about these charities and those they help, click the "Learn More" link next the charities when you purchase.

Easy delivery. It's super convenient to get these ebooks onto your reader of choice—just download and sync. Better yet, if you have a Kindle or Kindle-enabled tablet or smartphone, we can send the books directly to your device. No computer required.
