That is a long wait! I doubt there'll still be paperbooks by then (if we even still exist then!)

Nah, I'm with Sweetpea, 18 thousand years is a bit long to wait.
Though it just goes to show that those copyright extensions are really planned to stop it dropping into PD

Contact by Carl Sagan.

Zulu Heart by Steven Barnes.

Christy by Catherine Marshall.

A lot of books about the history of the Apollo-era space program, including astronaut biographies. Some of these are slowly becoming available; others show no sign. These include, sadly, the original text of Michael Collins' Carrying the Fire, which is hands down the best astronaut autobiography, and Andrew Chaikin's A Man on the Moon, which is probably the definitive popular history.

The Moorcock books are coming out in ebook in early 20016 - Feb through May, at least in the US.
Looks like they're being published in four separate editions. It will be close to $29 for the whole set.

Didn't realize this was no longer available. It's been published twice (once in 2007 & once in 2014) as an eBook in the US. Must be a rights issue between Sagan's estate and Simon & Schuster?

No idea. I even tweeted S&S once about this, no response. It's crazy that this isn't available.

It would be great to see these, and others available someday.

I'd like to see all of Timothy Findley's books available. Only "Pilgrim" is currently available. "Spadework" was available but I didn't see it either at Kobo or Amazon recently. A frequently overlooked and under appreciated author.

I still have all my Davies Penguins, but I'd invest in the ebooks. As it is, I'll get to the audiobooks at some point.

I would like to see The Gulag Archipelago as an ebook.

I haven't sent a copy off to one dollar scans because I would like it to have notes and references hyperlinked

Not too much work to add hyperlinks yourself.

Wonderful news! I'll be hoping right along with you for 84, Charing Cross Road. I should like both of these books as well as Q's Legacy as ebooks.
