If you'd like to try out some of the fiction of award-winning SF writer Simon Petrie, Peggy Bright Books has just uploaded five of his stories in all formats - ePub, mobi, PDF- as a free sampler, under the title Needs More Dinosaurs. Simon writes both humour and serious stuff, but whatever the flavour, it's accurate. I've had Simon, a fellow ASIMite, check out the physics in one of the stories I edited for ASIM 60.
I've just downloaded the book to my iBooks shelf and am very much looking forward to reading it. The cover is a simple monochrome dinosaur from a 19th century public domain publication, done so deliberately, although he could have found something more elaborate on a Creative Commons site - it will work better on an ereader, for one thing.
Here's the link for you. If you like the stories in this book, there's more by Simon on the PBB website, each book about the price of a cup of coffee. And of course, there's the wonderful anthology, Light Touch Paper Stand Back, which has had a lot of guest posts on this blog from contributors and which had a story of mine in it. ;-) Simon was a co-editor on this.
Go get your freebie and tell me what you think.
