So Black Friday is upon us. Personally I’d like a few graphics novels in half-price ebook. Especially new biographical graphic novel H.P. Lovecraft: He Who Wrote in Darkness<\/em> which is still an eye-watering \u00a318 on the Kindle. I already have the latter as a low-res review preview, but a high-res copy would be very nice. Though I don’t expect any of them will be down in price. The new three-volume searchable ebook edition of J. R. R. Tolkien Companion and Guide<\/em> looks similarly stuck at its standard set price.<\/p>\n

Spotted so far…<\/p>\n

* Hippocampus Press<\/a> has a few discounts. Including the three-volume hardcover for H. P. Lovecraft’s Collected Fiction: A Variorum Edition<\/em> at half-price.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

* For gamers, Chaosium has a coupon-code based sale<\/a> over the weekend.<\/p>\n

* PS Publishing has heavy discounts on many anthologies<\/a>, including a bundle of Joshi’s Black Wings<\/em> series.<\/p>\n

* The H. P. Lovecraft Historical Society Store. I can’t see any discount there yet.<\/p>\n

* Necronomicon Press<\/a> has free shipping for paper items, including the Crypt of Cthulhu<\/a><\/em> paper editions not yet in PDF…<\/p>\n

Free shipping for all United States orders of $20 or more (*excluding our Rarities, etc., section) – MAKE CTHULHU GREAT AGAIN!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

* A pack of big hi-res Lovecraft graphics is at 50% off<\/a> this weekend. ‘Commercial use’ for print products made by individuals, charities, and sole traders.<\/p>\n

* It’s possible that big gallery sites such as DeviantArt<\/a> will have discounts on its Core membership. (DeviantArt is free, but being Core is a nice non-essential extra). Incidentally, banish the foot-fetishist (singular, as my theory is it’s all posted by one bloke under different names) from DeviantArt, with the free Web browser add-on DeviantArt Filter 5.0<\/a>.<\/p>\n

* Horror and sci-fi artists using 3D and Poser<\/a> (down modestly, to $90, this weekend) will be interested in the Renderosity store<\/a> and its coming discounts on affordable 3D content this weekend. <\/p>\n

* Oh, and if you were thinking of picking up a heavily-discounted Amazon Kindle Fire tablet, and you want to read graphic novels from it… then I highly recommend the 2017 10″ HD model<\/a> instead of the 8″. I got one in the Black Friday sales last November, with the help of a little royalties pay-out, and I find it excellent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
