Deal Details
PRH UK via Amazon have Paradise Lost (Penguin Classics, Kindle eBook) by John Milton and John Leonard on sale for $0.99.

Thanks to Deal Hunter phoinix for sharing this deal.

Book Details:
  • In his epic poem Paradise Lost Milton conjured up a vast, awe-inspiring cosmos ranging across huge tracts of space and time. And yet, in putting a charismatic Satan and naked Adam and Eve at the centre of this story, he also created an intensely human tragedy on the Fall of Man. Written when Milton was in his fifties - blind, bitter and briefly in danger of execution - Paradise Lost's apparent ambivalence has led to intense debate about whether it manages to 'justify the ways of God to men' or exposes the cruelty of authority.

I had the option to add the audiobook from Audible for 99 cents more (a checkbox below the Buy Now with 1-Click button on the right column).

The Everyone's Library version (the same text, same publisher) is sold a little more and usually has better text formatting

While I normally agree with this sentiment, for the scholarly among us, Penguin Classics usually has some value-adds in their editions (like analysis, commentary, or explanatory end-notes) that might make them worth the price of admission to some.

They're also much better for translated works, since the public domain translation will usually be old and dated. Obviously doesn't apply here since Paradise Lost was composed in English, just throwing that out there.
