  • Folks, that Amazon Kindle $2.99 sale on OMW is probably a US-only thing. The rest of the world: Sorry. 43 minutes ago
  • However, OMW on Kindle is sold without DRM, so buy it there and put it on any reader you want, man. 1 hour ago
  • For those asking: I have no idea if that Kindle price is being matched elsewhere. I am only the author. THEY TELL ME NOTHING. 1 hour ago
  • Old Man's War is $2.99 for the Kindle at the moment. Don't know why, don't know how long that price will last. amazon.com/dp/B000SEIK2S/ 1 hour ago
