Vestin: OP (finally) updated :3.
Looking at the blurb's for each book. There are like 2 books (1 in each tier) i would class as sci fi. Rest of either horror or fantasy :/

About 13 hours left to get this.
I should mention that they've added an account system, so you can now access all your purchased bundles more easily.

I think I'll be getting this, SF books are always a good investment :D

I've been checking this bundle since it's launch. The only book that looks interesting to me is "Hollow World".
I think I'll pass.

Whoa, people. Whoa. Check out the stats on this one - the number of books, the averages... Hell - the theme alone should have quite wide appeal (here and elsewhere). Check OP for stuff, or click the link here and find out for yourselves. Buy some DRM-free ebooks :3!

At what point during purchase did this note pop-up?

The omission of important information like regional restrictions is absolutely unacceptable. How does one know which regions are affected?

I'll contact them and ask them to make it absolutely clear on the bundle page which regions are restricted for what books; as it stands now, it's false advertising that everyone who pays at least $12 gets 9 books.

I wonder if gifting would work around this...

It's a sad thing too - this book is allegedly the cream of the crop; it won the Hugo award last year, and it has a 4.31 Goodreads rating with over 10k votes cast...

That really sucks, its a really dumb restriction.

If you got that after paying PM me, it wasn't region restricted in Germany.
