^ A great, wonderful bargain!
They can be read in Publication Order or in Chronological Order. There is a fascinating debate over this, located here: https://www.narniaweb.com/books/readingorder. Regardless which order one chooses, these are enduring books that will appeal to both children and adults. ENJOY! |

The Collected Stories of Arthur C. Clarke by Arthur C. Clarke $1.99 at Amazon US.
Warning: This seems to be a relist with new cover art. I bought the previous edition, but looking at this one, Amazon doesn't know that I own it. It's a great value if you don't own it already. Quote:

And more on Clarke:
My edition is about 1,800 pages. (Check out Kobo UK for additional info.) This $1.99 edition is probably only Part 1 (of four parts - I think.) ADDED: I see that it does, indeed, have four parts. |

Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert A. Heinlein is on sale at Kobo Canada for $1.99.
Likely at Amazon as well. I enjoyed this book in the dim distant past and couldn't resist picking it up as an ebook at this price. |

Black Goats (Wine of the Gods Book 3) by Pam Uphoff A long running SF/magic series - latest Kaat (Wine of the Gods Book 45) I enjoyed this and have reread it more than once. Eight centuries ago the Wizards of Scoone rose in rebellion and overthrew the Tyrant Wizard. But not before he trapped the eight most powerful in a spellweb that chained their magic and changed their bodies into the form of goats. The deposed wizard took his goats with him into exile. And time passed. Ash is a quiet village in the foothills. The home of three Old Gods, a retired wizard herding sheep with his huge black goats, and the few surviving mages and witches. But two generations later, the young witches and mages are looking outward toward a world that has grown and changed. And while the Old Gods think of ways to increase the numbers of magically talented people, the old wizard loses control over the black goats Self published, Pam Uphoff is a Mad Genius Club member. https://madgeniusclub.com/2019/09/20...mistery-to-me/ https://www.amazon.com/Black-Goats-W...dp/B0060E7KOY/ https://www.amazon.co.uk/Black-Goats...dp/B0060E7KOY/ https://www.amazon.ca/Black-Goats-Wi...dp/B0060E7KOY/ |

Anyone read these? Are they any good? Some criticism revolves around the idea of preachiness. One reviewer (I didn't read all 1,300 + reviews) even mentions "...token gays". Good fiction, like life, should mirror all choices - in my opinion. However, I absolutely detest preachiness in fiction. Last edited by Dr. Drib; 09-26-2019 at 02:24 PM. |
