Yes, more books. 🙂

I’ve uploaded another 8 books from Book View Cafe today. Two of them are by Sue Lange (Uncategorized and We, Robots), but with apologies to Sue I’d like to focus on Sarah Zettel here.

Zettel is another example of a woman who has abandoned science fiction to write what publishers think of as “women’s books”. These days she’s doing vampires, and mostly what we have is her four-volume Arthurian fantasy romance series. If that’s your sort of thing, I recommend the omnibus edition, Paths to Camelot, which is much cheaper than buying all four volumes, and being an ebook does not have to be set in minuscule type to make it small enough to carry.

However, we also have one of Zettel’s earlier books, Fool’s War. This is a book that has been on my “to read” pile for a while, though the paper copy is stranded in California. Not only is the book space opera by a woman; the lead character, starship captain Katmer Al Shei, is a devout Muslim. That’s not something you see every day.

Also the book has a landscape cover (by Donato). I’ve not yet checked it on the iPad to see how it looks, but hey, why not? Ebooks are not constrained by physical shape, after all.
