Looks like Humble might be in trouble-

I almost bought that Shannara bundle since I'm reading them now, but the Kobo stuff is a pain in the ass. You can't put it on Kindle unless you go through stripping the copy protection. I went through it with the Discworld series because I didn't know any better, but it was a really convoluted process.

Of course, if you're going to just read them on a PC it's fine, but that didn't interest me.

Yeah, the process isn't too bad, but my Kindle doesn't seem to recognize them as books in a series - so they all just hang out and aren't bundled into a folder like if I purchase them through Amazon. That's a great deal though.
Maybe next year, maybe no go

I went ahead and got it and went through the ordeal of getting them converted over to Kindle. Even though I already owned the original trilogy and Scions, the amount of money I saved on the rest of the books was well worth it.

I didn't get the Shannara bundle, but you guys did motivate me to get off my rear and convert the Terry Pratchett bundle I bought a while back. Thanks for that.

This month's Choice Bundle looks extremely skippable, the only thing that seems interesting is Guardians of the Galaxy and that game was an Epicgames freebie about six months ago.

I need to return to that game someday. I got stuck and gave up.

I just picked up the Dark Pictures and Little Nightmares Bundle for $20. This is a great deal for the four Dark Pictures Anthology games (Man of Medan, Little Hope, House of Ashes, and The Devil in Me) plus Little Nightmares, the Little Nightmares expansion, and Little Nightmares II.

I haven't played any of the Dark Pictures games, but they've gotten pretty good reviews and I've had them on my list to get at some point.
