Raymond Feist - not listed

Ben Bova - only 2 titles

I appreciate what they are doing by offering DRM free e-books and it's great that someone is out there trying to push the envelope so don't take my post as flaming the site. I'm not. I just feel it could use some attention.
Baen is a publisher, so they can only list authors whose works they publish. They're not a general SciFi/Fantasy book sales site. Robin Hobb, for example, has some books published by Spectra and her latest ones by Eos. If they had ebook sites, you could probably get those books there. But complaining about not finding them on Baen is like complaining that you can't find them on Stephen King's website :-)
