Ebook gratis: Five Years of Stories of Tor.com's Original Fiction

En Fantástica Ficción ya se hicieron eco de la noticia hace unos días, pero creo que merece la pena repetirla por si a alguien se le ha pasado. En la web tor.com están de aniversario y han decidido celebrarlo editando un macro-ebook gratuito con todas las historias que han publicado online durante estos cinco años. Son 151 relatos que en la versión en pdf ocupan nada más y nada menos que 3817 páginas. La tabla de contenidos, que reproduzco más abajo, es tan interesante como impresionante, con historias de autores tan conocidos como Elizabeth Bear, Gregory Benford, Robert Reed, Brandon Sanderson, John Scalzi, Charles Stross, Michael Swanwick o Rachel Swirsky, por citar unos pocos. Muchos de estos cuentos, además, han recibido nominaciones o han ganado los principales premios del género.

Para descargar el ebook (que se ofrece en formatos epub, mobi y pdf, eso sí, bastante grandes todos ellos) es necesario registrarse en la página, pero creo que bien compensa el esfuerzo.
