Just in case anyone is interested, Humble Bundle has a Tad Williams bundle containing 21 ebooks for $18. The offer ends in about 1.5 days. The ebooks come through kobo.com so you would require an account with kobo to redeem the ebooks.

Does anyone know what this Kobo thing is? I'm used to humble book bundles being DRM free.

I have a kobo reader that I use for DRM free books...so they're legit - trying to match Amazon's hold on the ebook market I think

I have a Kobo e-reader so I can't say if these books are DRM free or not. I'm not sure when HumbleBundle started doing this but this isn't the first book bundle they've done through Kobo.

Kobo puts DRM in their eBooks when publishers demand it, depends on the book, dunno about these particular ones.

would be great to know if it comes with drm. I don't have a kobo. It says 'use on any device' on the humble page...does that mean no drm?

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !ebookdeals@literature.cafe, !books@lemmy.world
