Book Exchange

Post by Tamien »

Some exchange of ebooks has been going on scattered in other threads. I'm hoping to centralize it into this thread.

I recently finished Mirror Dance and realized I didn't have a digital copy of Memory. I managed to find one, but I'm also missing Captain Vorpatril's Alliance and wasn't able to find that. Does anyone have a copy they could give me?

Also, I have these books, all of which I would generally recommend, if anyone would like a copy:
Books I Have
Anne Bishop
  • Black Jewels
    • Daughter of the Blood
      Heir to the Shadows
      Queen of the Darkness
      The Invisible Ring

and assorted other fiction and nonfiction which I mostly don't have physical copies of and/or haven't read and therefore am not putting on this list
(I also own the above in dead tree format and would recommend you acquire those when you can, or otherwise actually get money to the authors. If you are in the SF Bay Area and would prefer paper to digital, I'm happy to lend physical books as well.)

Captain Vorpatril's Alliance

This is where I've been reading the Vorkosigan Saga. The site is a bit inconstant though, and is currently down. Most can be downloaded in I believe several formats when it goes back up though.

I tend to be rather good at finding books on the internet, so message me if you'd like me to look for something.

Nice, Oraanu. I guess my services are not required here. XD

Hahah, thanks both of you! Kappa, I believe you have my email, so if you have a mobi that will save me the conversion. Oraanu, thank you for the pdf and the site! Mostly I get my ebooks from this site, but sometimes from this one, which have the drawback of being in Russian which I am not fluent in.

It's a collection of essays and other writing (genealogy, pronunciation guides, etc.) about The Vorkosigan Saga, there's a couple by Bujold herself in it but the majority are by other writers. I've only skimmed it but its interesting enough.
