It seems to be a pretty good day for sfnal readers, since Humble Bundle's new offering is for:
Humble Book Bundle Stranger Creatures supporting The Jane Goodall Institute chock full of excellent speculative fiction works about Exactly What It Says In The Title, and with some non-fiction books about IRL creatures as well.
Fixed tiers of $1, $8, $15, and $20 (no new titles added next week). There's also a $25 option to sponsor an animal via “adopt a chimpanzee” and also get a little plush version (shipping and handling not included), with the extra proceeds of all $25 and up pledges going entirely to the charity.
The books are presented via Brick Tower Press and include excellent backlist reprints from notable authors such as Esther M. Friesner, Tanith Lee, Philip Jose Farmer, Robert Silverberg, Alfred Bester, YA favourite Bruce Coville, and tie-ins for Roger Zelazny and Ray Bradbury, and more.

They have Barb, but we have Jane. Jane Goodall's work with chimpanzees and her focus on conservation have changed how we think of the wild world. Now, Humble has partnered with the Jane Goodall Institute and Brick Tower Press to bring you a selection of Goodall's classic children's books, including My Life with the Chimpanzees, paired with some of Brick Tower's best science fiction. You can also adopt a chimpanzee in this bundle (you'll even get a little plush version)! Plus, Humble Bundle and Brick Tower Press will donate all proceeds from purchases $25 and over to the Jane Goodall Institute. Come travel to new worlds and meet strange creatures with us!
