The humble bundle has put online the first Humble ebook Bundle and it is amazing :)

Take a look:

Thank you, I just had to buy that bundle.

Came here to post this! It is an amazing deal AND some of the proceeds go to charity. It's one of those "pay what you want" deals. Definitely worth it.

8 books for $12 min. AND DRM free.

What a brilliant deal! Has anyone outside of the US purchased these successfully and without any issues?

I'm from Italy and I purchased successfully this (and the two previous indie games) bundle.

No issues, the payment is via paypal or via amazon or google.
Once done the payment you will receive in your email a link to download the ebooks (the link does not expire).

The ebooks can be downloaded in three formats: pdf, mobi and epub.

Thanks for the confirmation Saretta - I'll buy the bundle when I get home!

I picked up the bundle too. Great idea.

Wow, there's some great books in there! I own paper versions of Signal To Noise (not sure how that one works in e-book format, it's a GN) and Zoo City, but I might pick up the bundle anyway. :)

I caved in and bought it. I already have Old Man's War but I wanted the rest.

Since no one has listed it here are the books:
Invasion
Zoo City
Stranger Things Happen
Magic for Beginners
Pirate Cinema
Pump Six and Other Stories

Bonus books:
Old Man's War
Signal to Noise

I caved in an bought it as well. If nothing else I really like the Humble Bundle approach and hope there'll be more e-book bundles in the future, so I reckoned I should put my money where my mouth is.

Yeah, I've bought it - I've read Old Man's War but didn't have the ebook. Look forward to seeing more in the future.

The Humble Bundle has been updated! For those who now buy for more than the average (and those who previously have as well) there are now 5 extra books. All are webcomic collections:
xkcd: volume 0
Save Yourself, Mammal!: A Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal Collection
The Most Dangerous Game: A Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal Collection
Penny Arcade Volume 1: Attack of the Bacon Robots
Penny Arcade Volume 2: Epic Legends Of The Magic Sword Kings

Will look great when I get my Fire HD!

One of the groups that benefits from the proceeds is the Science Fiction Writers of America. John Scalzi (OLD MAN'S WAR) is the president of the group.

Can't believe I took this long to buy this bundle. Also encouraged my friends at work who like SF to go buy it too. When I told one the average price was $13 for the whole bundle, not each book, his eyes lit up

Price up to $13.75 - but still worth it :)

Went in for $25 and told them to give it all to Child's Play.

Another bundle of books worth looking at:

Storybundle.com is doing a similar deal ATM

I picked up both bundles. What a great bunch of books!

I have about 130 unread books on my kindle already but will definitely pick both deals up this week as they look interesting

Despite not reading the first Humble Bundle, and despite having read some of the works in this Bundle, I still picked it up. It's such a great idea and it's a lot cheaper than buying them individually.
