Ancillary Justice for only 1.99$

Here's the blurb:
From Nebula and Arthur C. Clarke Award nominated debut author, Ann Leckie, comes Ancillary Justice, a stunning space opera that asks what it means to be human in a universe guided by artificial intelligence.
On a remote, icy planet, the soldier known as Breq is drawing closer to completing her quest.
Breq is both more than she seems and less than she was. Years ago, she was the Justice of Toren--a colossal starship with an artificial intelligence linking thousands of corpse soldiers in the service of the Radch, the empire that conquered the galaxy.
An act of treachery has ripped it all away, leaving her with only one fragile human body. And only one purpose--to revenge herself on Anaander Mianaai, many-bodied, near-immortal Lord of the Radch.

The Red Knight for only 1.99$
here.
Here's the blurb:
This is a world dominated by The Wild.
Man lives in pockets of civilisation claimed from The Wild. Within men's walls life is civilised, the peace punctuated by tournaments, politicking, courtly love and canny business. Beyond those walls men are prey - vulnerable to the exceptionally powerful and dangerous creatures which populate the land, and even more vulnerable to those creatures schemes.
So when one of those creatures breaks out of The Wild and begins preying on people in their homes, it takes a specialist to hunt it down or drive it out . . . and even then, it's a long, difficult and extremely dangerous job.
The Black Captain and his men are one such group of specialists.
They have no idea what they're about to face . . .
Forget George and the Dragon. Forget Sir Lancelot and tales of Knightly exploits. This is dirty, bloody work. This is violent, visceral action. This is a mercenary knight as you've never seen one before.

Must have been a 1 hour sale... back up to $9.99 already... bummer... I have this on my wishlist....
I did grab A Crucible of Souls by Mitchell Hogan for $3 though...
It said to me this title is not currently available for purchase. Bit disappointed.
Just got an email ad from Orbit, saying Ancillary Justice, as well as Parasite (by Mira Grant) are available for $2 each... just not on Amazon. They list Nook, Kobo, Zola, iBooks and Google Play as ways to get the book(s) for that price.
Just ordered on Amazon for $1.99 today, 7/6/2014.
