What could better than a free book? Okay, lots of stuff. Nevertheless, a free book is good, as is a free, multi-format e-book.
Charles Stross has released his new book Accelerando as a free e-book. Here's what Cory Doctorow has to say: "Charlie Stross's brilliant novel Accelerando is available as a free Creative Commons download! This novel collects and bridges all of his Hugo-nominated Manfred Macx stories, published over the last several years in Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine. Charlie is a wild talent, and he writes like the love-child of Vernor Vinge, Neal Stephenson and Hunter S Thompson. Once you start this book, you won't be able to stop."
We'll see. I didn't much like the last book of his I read, but I've been looking forward to this one for a while. It'll be on my PDA in just a few minutes!
