Bookworms Rejoice! March 17th's Book Riot Deals Ar...

Leading the charge today, we have R.F. Kuang's *Katabasis* for a mere $1.99. If you're unfamiliar, *Katabasis* refers to a descent into hell, and if anyone can deliver a truly captivating and terrifying journey, it's Kuang. This one should definitely be on your radar, especially at that price. Also catching my eye is *History Lessons* by Zoe B. Wallbrok for $3.99. A college history professor turned amateur sleuth? Sign me up! I always love a good academic mystery, and this sounds like the perfect blend of intellectual intrigue and page-turning suspense. Plus, who doesn’t love a strong female lead?

For those craving something a little different, Dahlia Adler's *Home Field Advantage* and Ashley Poston’s *The Seven Year Slip* are both available for $1.99. Adler brings us a story of love and acceptance on the football field. Meanwhile, Poston offers a sweet time-slip romance. Don't forget the classics! Truman Capote's chilling true crime masterpiece, *In Cold Blood*, is also on sale for $2.99. A steal, frankly, considering its enduring impact on the genre. And Dolly Alderton’s *Good Material* is available for only $1.99, offering a contemporary exploration of relationships and modern life.

Annie Proulx’s *Barkskins*, a sprawling, multi-generational saga about the deforestation of North America, is a bit pricier at $2.99, but well worth the investment. It's a hefty read, but profoundly moving and thought-provoking. Also for $1.99, Austin Channing Brown's *I'm Still Here* offers a powerful and timely reflection on race and identity. And finally, for the George R.R. Martin faithful, *A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms* is marked down to $5.99. While we continue to wait (patiently, of course!) for the next installment in the *A Song of Ice and Fire* series, this collection of Dunk and Egg novellas provides a welcome dose of Westeros.

Don't overlook Kamilah Cole's *An Arcane Inheritance* for only $1.99, which is a good option for those searching for a new dark academia fantasy novel. And if you missed yesterday’s deals, there are still some gems available! Naomi Novik's *Spinning Silver*, Katarina Bivald's *The Murders in Great Diddling*, Erin Morgenstern’s *The Starless Sea*, and Arundhati Roy's *The God of Small Things* are all still up for grabs.
