And both of the Baen books with his stories are unavailable.
The two current ebook compilations I'm aware of are Norstrilia (with the prequel, The Ballad of Lost C'Mell) and The Best of Cordwainer Smith. I have both, and have read them a few (10+) times. Depending on how you count the renamings and recombinations of stories, that accounts for 11 short stories and a short novel. According to the Cordwainer Smith site ( http://www.cordwainer-smith.com/all-...-the-books.htm), that leaves 30+ short stories. I don't care if some of the stories are incomplete are not as good as his others. I think anything he wrote would be of value. |
If you are in a life+50 copyright country, Gutenberg Canada do have a few of his stories available to download, since copyright have expired on them in these territories
