Penguin are still sending me books. Their PR people say it takes a while for the message to percolate through the system. Yesterday, Kevin says, we got a copy of an omnibus edition of M.A. Foster’s Ler trilogy. That’s the set that includes The Gameplayers of Zan. As I recall (and it was a long time ago I read them) those were rather good books. Anyone else remember them?

Yeah, see, unless you have someone in any PR department who is a regular reader of your blog, your name may stay in the system of quite a few publisher’s for a while.
I have very fond memories of the books… from “Way Back When”. My recollection of Foster is that he is a rather underappreicated author.
I do recall one part of his bio is that he was an Air Force Missle Launch Officer. Y’know, one of the guys in the buried silo with the nuke tipped rockets aimed at Moscow. Brrrrrrrr.
He does have a website – of sort: http://www.acmecomics.com/FOSTERarc/fosarchive.html
