Why Amazon Prime Members Are in the News Right Now

Updated

Amazon Prime Members is trending in the news because Amazon has announced the dates for its upcoming Prime Big Deal Days sale, and early member deals on books and graphic novels are already drawing attention. The coverage highlights lower prices available to Prime members ahead of the main sale, with two specific titles being promoted at new price lows.

One headline focuses on hardcover editions of TMNT: The Last Ronin, while another highlights The Hobbit Illustrated Edition. Both reports connect those discounts to the sale announcement and describe books as a notable category for early offers.

Amazon has officially announced the dates for its Prime Big Deals Day sale, which means there's already early deals available for Prime Members today.

The graphic novel version combines the five-part miniseries of comics into one collection. The story is written by the original creators of TMNT, Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird, and is illustrated by the Escorza Brothers .

The most enticing discounts I've been able to find so far are on the many different illustrated versions of The Lord of the Rings . The Lord of the Rings books get discounted pretty much every time Amazon has some sort of exclusive sale, and each time the prices tend to drop just a little bit more. This time around, it's the Illustrated edition of The Hobbit that has reached a new low price. At $26.79 this is the best deal we've ever seen on this book.
