Life, Interrupted

Everyone, Writer Linda Nagata has a new anthology out, Goddesses and Other Stories, containing ten stories including her Nebula winner, "Goddesses." This is Linda's first collection, and it pulls together stories that were originally published in Analog Science Fiction & Fact, The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, More Amazing Stories, and SciFi.com.

You can sample her writing by reading one of the stories, "Spectral Expectations."

So if you like to carry short story collections for those times when you're waiting for something, this collection is only $3.95 and available in EPUB and MOBI. Go get yourself a pocketful of new ideas!

Hey! More hard science fiction with lots of great characters coming your way!

Book View Café is welcoming newest member, Linda Nagata, today. She's the author of seven novels under her own name, including The Bohr Maker, winner of the Locus Award for best first novel, and the novella “Goddesses,” the first online publication to receive a Nebula award. Linda also writes under the name Trey Shiels.

To celebrate, Sue Lange is interviewing Linda at the Book View Café blog.

What's The Bohr Maker about? Well, here's the idea:

Nikko is the first true “post human”—a man genetically engineered to survive in the airless void of space—but the research permit that allows his existence is about to expire. His body has already begun an insidious, pre-programmed failure that will end in his death. Nikko’s only hope for survival rides on an illegal and extremely powerful nanotech device known as the Bohr Maker, that will allow him to rewrite his genetic code and extend his life.

And we're holding one of the world renowned BVC giveaways! Send in an email with “Linda Nagata ebook” in the subject line. We'll pick five winners at random and send each a free ecopy of The Bohr Maker. This is a one day only offer, so send an email to linda.nagata AT bookviewcafe.com.
