Random Weekend Book Stuff

This won’t make much sense unless you he been reading this, but it is a lot of fun if you have. And if you aren’t reading Fred’s Left Behind series, you are missing out.
Tor is giving away free ebooks in exchange for your email address.
Steven Brust has written a Firefly novel and is giving it away for free. This is not acceptable. I want my next Vlad novel and he cannot write that if he is writing Firefly novels.
It is free book week in genre-land. Neil Gaiman, in celebration of his blog’s seventh birthday, is giving away one of is books away as an ebook. Which one will be determined by fan voting.
In less happy news, Caitlan Kiernan is ill and and in serious financial trouble as a result. You can help here if you are a fan or just a nice person.
Dave Sim? Still bug-nuts crazy. He’s kinda like the Platonic Form “Misogynist” at this point.



Worry not, the next Vlad book Jhegaala is due out in July (and it’s quite excellent) and Steve is already hard at work on the one which comes after that.
Thanks for the link!

The link was my pleasure. And great news on the new Vlad book!
“He’s kinda like the Platonic Form “Misogynist” at this point.”
There is no evidence that Sim is a misogynist.
