^^This.

Ooh, yeah! I'd love to have his complete short stories!

xendula · 12-14-2012, 07:10 PM

There are two more Kindle books here.
Hmm, never mind, there is only another short story, some i terview book, and the rest are paperbooks!

Oh, and Titan needs to fix the mess with The Further Adventures of Sherlock Holmes series not being available on B&N. They were available, but suddenly became unavailable.

Titan (via inquiry on their FB page) says they haven't signed an exclusivity deals or have any rights issues. But it's been a couple months now & they say it probably won't be fixed until after the holidays.

I just went to the Kobo site, and I don't see the Harper Hall books at all. They are Dragonsong, Dragonsinger, and Dragondrums. I don't see any of them there.

I would like these as ebooks too. Also Joan D. Vinge's Snow Queen series, and C. J. Cherryh's Morgaine cycle and Company Wars series.

Come on publishers, stop sitting on the right to these books and let me give you my money!

I'd like to see the first of the Horatio Hornblower books available in e-book format. Some of the books are available, but not the first book in the series.

I'd like all my old Asimov short story collections that fell apart.

The new Complete Journals of L.M. Montgomery (I e-mailed the publisher, and they have no plans for an ebook), and The Lieutenant's Lady by Bess Streeter Aldrich (some of her books are available as ebooks, but not that one.)
