Same here - slogged most of the way through then had to switch to an expiring library borrow and never bothered to go back. I just couldn't work up any interest in any of the characters. Or maybe I've been spoiled by The Expanse...

EReaderIQ has it at $3.99 in May 2018 so I'm assuming this it is a sale price here too. I hope the Thieves' World anthologies start being released, I haven't been able to find them digitally. I've assumed that with so many authors that the rights are kind of wonky. |

I also discovered my ancient, polybagged copy of The Worlds of Robert A. Heinlein in the same cache. I’m rather tempted to scan its cover and reassemble the volume as an ebook, just to have it. As I recall, Expanded Universe (inexplicably published as two ebooks) contains everything in Worlds, so it ought to be a fairly simple matter of assembling the proper bits in the correct order. I wish it were as easy to get an ecopy of The Number of the Beast, another book in that cache, but apparently not. |

I was doing some cleaning in the basement a few years back and found my If magazines from 1962-63 in which Podkayne of Mars was serialized. Sadly, the condition was best described as pathetic -- spending 45 years jammed in a cardboard box is probably not recommended as an archival storage method.

I think Tor did two freebies this month, but I missed the other while I was on vacation.
If anyone is a Brian Jacques' Redwall fan, the first three, and #17 and #21 are on sale for $1.99 at Amazon and Kobo, and probably every other US retailer. |
