Free (Kindle) A Scatter of Stardust by E. C. Tubb [Vintage Sci-Fi Story Collection]

[ATDrake]

A Scatter of Stardust by the late British author E. C. Tubb (ISFDB, Wikipedia) is a collection of his vintage short science fiction stories from the 1950s onwards, free courtesy of publisher Endeavour Press's Venture imprint, who are e-printing it from an 1976 edition originally out from Dennis Dobson, now in an expanded edition with several additional newly-collected stories.

Currently free @ Amazon (available to Canadians & in the UK and pretty much everywhere else worldwide that Amazon sells, since this is being done via their KDP Select exclusive-or-else program)

And this has been the selected 3rd (non-repeat) free ebook thread of the day.

Because it's always a treat to receive sfnal freebies, and a vintage collection of old science fiction stories by a well-established author who's probably some Gentle Reader's nostalgic favourite, newly expanded with a few extras that might otherwise be rather hard to find, from a publisher who's been quite dedicated to bringing back what they've acquired from his estate and generously offering us introductions to his work, is doubleplus good and welcome.

Enjoy!
