I’ve mentioned before that I really like Ruth Downie’s Gaius Petreius Ruso/Tilla series, set in Roman Britain (and around the Roman empire of the time). I’m especially fond of Tilla’s character, even though she doesn’t get top billing. Now all eight of the books in the series are on sale in an omnibus. The titles are: Medicus (apa Ruso and the Disappearing Dancing Girls), Terra Incognita (apa Ruso and the Demented Doctor), Persona Non Grata (apa Ruso and the Root of All Evils), Caveat Emptor (apa Ruso and the River of Darkness), Simper Fidelis, Tabula Rasa, Vita Brevis, and Memento Mori. The only missing title is a novella, Prima Facie.
The omnibus is $3.99 at Kindle and Kobo US, but it’s also discountable at Kobo, so if you use the “partners” discount code, you get 40% off. And that is stackable with your Kobo VIP discount, if you belong to their VIP program, so I’m seeing it at $2.15 for all eight books right now. That’s cheap enough to buy it even if you only need one more, much less if you need more…
If you missed the omnibus last week, it’s on sale again, although this time it’s $8.99 at Kindle and Kobo US, not $3.99. But still well worth the price if you need/want several of the books. And it’s $8.09 at Kobo US if you are a Kobo VIP member, and you can also use discount code “partners”, which was still working as of earlier this morning, to get an additional 40% off. If you are both a VIP and use the code, that brings the price down to $4.85. (Note that “partners” only works on one book per shopping cart, but you can use it on multiple carts, so if you want to buy more than one discountable book, you’ll need to buy them one-at-a-time.)
If you missed the omnibus in the US, all eight of Ruth Downie’s Gaius Petreius Ruso/Tilla series have dropped to £0.99 each at Kindle UK. Here’s a link to the series webpage:
