Fictionwise have now got back to me about Next of Kin — they're contacting the publisher for an updated version. (Although I suspect that B&N/Fictionwise do their own conversion to eReader format, and that it's this stage that's get messed up, so a new version from the publisher might not help. We'll see.)

A splendid set of stories about the future of biological technologies. I had read one of the stories when it appeared in Analog or Asimovs, but the others were new to me. I think I shall enjoy his other books I've bought from Fictionwise. I certainly liked "The Dragon Man", which is the other one I've read recently.

It turns out that I've read Agatha Christie's 18th book, "Lord Edgware Dies" before (and it's a very good mystery with Hercule Poirot). So now I'm going on to her 19th book, Why Didn't They Ask Evans?. This is one of the few Agatha Christie ebooks I didn't get from Fictionwise. I bought it from Amazon last December to fill in the gap in my collection for £2.99. I see it's now gone up to £3.99 in the UK Kindle store.
