Time Enough for Love by Robert A. Heinlein is $0.99 at Amazon US.

The capstone and crowning achievement of the Future History series, from the New York Times bestselling Grand Master of Science Fiction...

Time Enough for Love follows Lazarus Long through a vast and magnificent timescape of centuries and worlds. Heinlein's longest and most ambitious work, it is the story of a man so in love with Life that he refused to stop living it; and so in love with Time that he became his own ancestor.

Got it!

Read it when it first came out. Now I can read it all over again and throw darts at it.

Thank you!

I haven't read all of it yet either but what I have read (the first 4 books didn't have the other 5 yet do now) I do recommend. I'm teaming on the first recommendation since I know that self published books need to have been read to recommend.

They seem to be free at Amazon UK too.

It would mess up my number, but it might be interesting.

Maybe they mean their old paper copy! Use it for a dart board and read the ebook.

[binaryhermit]

That'd be less of a problem, although if that's the case, don't do it unless you like your dead tree books skewered.

(Although a non-rare dead tree book has fairly low value, so...)

I meant that figuratively, because there are over 1,000 other ebooks on my Kindle that would end up having a slight.....um....defect.

You could just tell everyone it's an incredibly realistic Swiss cheese case on it.

The Rise and Fall of D.O.D.O. by Neal Stephenson & Nicole Galland is $2.99 on Amazon.com

When Melisande Stokes, an expert in linguistics and languages, accidently meets military intelligence operator Tristan Lyons in a hallway at Harvard University, it is the beginning of a chain of events that will alter their lives and human history itself. The young man from a shadowy government entity approaches Mel, a low-level faculty member, with an incredible offer. The only condition: she must sign a nondisclosure agreement in return for the rather large sum of money.

Tristan needs Mel to translate some very old documents, which, if authentic, are earth-shattering. They prove that magic actually existed and was practiced for centuries. But the arrival of the scientific revolution and the Age of Enlightenment weakened its power and endangered its practitioners. Magic stopped working altogether in 1851, at the time of the Great Exhibition at London’s Crystal Palace—the world’s fair celebrating the rise of industrial technology and commerce. Something about the modern world "jams" the "frequencies" used by magic, and it’s up to Tristan to find out why.

And so the Department of Diachronic Operations—D.O.D.O. —gets cracking on its real mission: to develop a device that can bring magic back, and send Diachronic Operatives back in time to keep it alive . . . and meddle with a little history at the same time. But while Tristan and his expanding operation master the science and build the technology, they overlook the mercurial—and treacherous—nature of the human heart.

When at all possible, I prefer buying from Duane's store, and right now everything there is 50% off (and has been, I believe, for the entire pandemic.)

Slightly more expensive than the Amazon edition, admittedly, but you get her preferred edition of the book.

Ooh, and the edition there is the revised edition.

Buying Time by Joe Haldeman is $1.99 on Amazon.com

The Stileman Process is a medical miracle: Every ten years or so, you can restore youth and health to your aging, ailing body—as long as you can pay the enormous fee. The scientific advancement has altered the twenty-first-century world even more than space travel.

Dallas Barr is one of the oldest men on Earth, and now he needs to repeat the procedure. But while scrambling desperately for his next essential million, he meets Maria, a woman from a previous life—and makes two chilling discoveries: Not all Stileman “immortals” were created the same. And their days may be more numbered than they think . . .
