Fritz Leiber. SELECTED STORIES is available at Baen's Webscriptions site and also at Amazon's Kindle store.

Harlan Ellison. Check out his collections GENTLEMAN JUNKIE and SHATTERDAY in particular.

Joseph Epstein's collections THE GOLDIN BOYS and FABULOUS SMALL JEWS (the latter available for Kindle) are well worth a look.

There's not nearly enough of it available as ebooks, but the short fiction of Roger Zelazny, Theodore Sturgeon, Gerald Kersh, and Jorge Luis Borges.

Several volumes of Robert Silverberg's collected stories are available for Kindle. Ditto Richard Matheson's work.

To my knowledge none of Jack Finney's short fiction has been published in ebook formats, but if you enjoy good Twilight Zone-style fantasy you'll want to check out his collections THE THIRD LEVEL and I LOVE GALESBURG IN THE SPRINGTIME, both long out of print; the paperback collection ABOUT TIME includes selected stories from both these collections.

Bests to all,

Tony Rabig
