Infinity Plus is desperate to give you a FREEEEE book!

[realthog]

Many will fondly recall the website Infinity Plus, which offered an astonishing array of free online fiction, plus reviews, interviews and suchlike stuff. (It's all still there as an archive, if you have a few months' reading time to spare.)

More recently, Keith Brooke -- the Infinity Plus supremo -- has founded Infinity Plus Ebooks, which has been publishing with some success since just before the start of the year . . . even though two of the books concerned are by moi.

Now the first Infinity Plus Ebooks sampler is available. Called Infinities, it has a contents list as follows:

Keith Brooke: "The Man Who Built Heaven" (short story)
Eric Brown: "Venus Macabre" (short story)
Eric Brown: extract from novel A Writer's Life
John Grant: "Wooden Horse" (novelette)
Garry Kilworth: "Phoenix Man" (short story)
Kaitlin Queen: extract from novel One More Unfortunate
Iain Rowan: "One Step Closer" (short story)

Anna Tambour: extract from novel Spotted Lily
Linda Nagata: extract from novel Memory
Scott Nicholson: extract from novel The Red Church
Kristine Kathryn Rusch: extract from novel The Disappeared
Steven Savile: extract from novel The Immortal

Infinities is available for FREEEEE download in .mobi (Kindle) and .epub formats at the Infinity Plus Ebooks site and in these and some other formats from Smashwords.

Just to repeat in case of misunderstanding, it's

!!!FREEEEE!!!

(Classy, eh?)

One notes that the e-book contains a wooden horse. This, surely, is backwards?

Are you suggesting it's wooden horse's ass backwards?

If so, buster, it's a dawn meeting using clerihews at twenty paces for you, my friend.

Hm, or maybe I could just mention the current ODI series against Pakistan?

Dodging the issue, eh?

Wonderful, though, to see Simmons and Bishoo charging onto the international stage. Fingers crossed those two are heralds of a great WI resurgence.

Back in the day, I used to be able to go along and watch a Somerset team featuring Sir Viv and The Bird. There was also a posturing arsehole called Botham, but that wasn't why the real fans turned out.
