But I'm not going to open myself to an inundation of promotional emails before I even know if I'm going to bite.
The pickings are extremely slim; only 209 titles in their catalog. I prefer sci-fi and found 25 titles in the sci-fi/fantasy genre, and most of those were fantasy, which I don't like. Needless to say, they won't be getting my credit card.
