New Baen Free Library book
The very festive "Selections from Brave New Worlds: Dystopian Stories" edited by John Joseph Adams
http://www.baen.com/library/ Blurb: YOU ARE BEING WATCHED When the government wields its power against its own people, every citizen becomes an enemy of the state. Will you fight the system, or be ground to dust beneath the boot of tyranny? In his smash-hit anthologies Wastelands and The Living Dead, acclaimed editor John Joseph Adams showed you what happens when society is utterly wiped away. Now he brings you a glimpse into an equally terrifying future — what happens when civilization invades and dictates every aspect of your life? From 1984 to The Handmaid’s Tale, from Children of Men to Bioshock, the dystopian imagination has been a vital and gripping cautionary force. Brave New Worlds collects twenty-eight of the best tales of dystopian menace by some of today’s most visionary writers. Includes some or all of: “Resistance”by Tobias S. Buckell. “Of a Sweet Slow Dance in the Wake of Temporary Dogs” by Adam-Troy Castro. “The Things That Make Me Weak and Strange Get Engineered Away” by Cory Doctorow. “Civilization” by Vylar Kaftan “Just Do It” by Heather Lindsley. “For Further Reading” by Ross E. Lockhart. “Arties Aren’t Stupid” by Jeremiah Tolbert. “Is This Your Day to Join the Revolution?” by Genevieve Valentine. “Amaryllis” by Carrie Vaughn.

Just download it using the links on the left side.
You can "buy" it also, if you wish. |

You can buy the free one for $4, rather than $6 .... or just download it free. |
