Azimuthal, I don't entirely agree with the description of Baen'S site. Many of the authors there have served in the US military and write in that genre, but there are also many other styles. In addition, they have a "free Library" so you can try various authors to see if you like their style.

Also there are several sites where books in other formats (for which you can find conversion programs to convert to RTF) that are more reasonably priced than the Sony Connect. Keep looking and as said above, thanks for serving.
