Other members have posted rants about TOR Books; this is mine.

In the recent free ebook from TOR, I found an author I love. Jo Walton has IMO an excellent grasp of the English language. Her novel, Farthing, is one of the best alternate history novels I have ever read. It is easily as good as the best of Harry Turtledove or S.M. Stirling.

This novel was the first in a series, so of course I want to get the rest of the series and read it. Unfortunately, the rest of the series is not available as ebooks. And since I do not buy paper books anymore, TOR has lost a sale. Oh, I'm still going to read the books. But this won't help TOR because I'm checking them out of my local library.

P.S. I bet you're wondering why I waited so long. I have a stack of things I want to read, but the suspense of wanting to know what happened next finally got to me.
