The Reality Dysfunction by Peter F. Hamilton
Buy: 7.99
Space opera on the grand scale; the first volume of The Night’s Dawn trilogy, an SF classic, brought back into print (last in print: Aspect 1997). And by grand, we mean Big. You’re going to need that Wikipedia page and all of its family. Every book in this trilogy comes in two volumes, but whether a particular edition is just one or both volumes is sometimes unclear.
Here are the other Kindle editions of the various volumes of books from the Night’s Dawn trilogy, apart from The Reality Dysfunction from Orbit Books. (You may want to wait until the end of this article before deciding to click on things, because there are more goodies.)

This file is big: 5 MB. That’s a lot of text, but it’s about the right size; each volume is something a little under 1 MB in text with some sort of JPG cover added. I assume the cover for this book is very much simplified to reduce file size.

If you like Really Big Science Fiction or Fantasy, the kind that spreads across multiple books, the Kindle’s quite nice for obvious reasons, plus you can search (if you dare) all the books in one go.
