Arrgh, Tor :( [Mar. 21st, 2008|06:09 am]

This is one of those time's I'd just like to shake my fist in your face. What is UP with this trend of Tor having only one book of each author's work up as an ebook? Case in point, Tobias Buckell's Crystal Rain. A damn good book, and I was bloody happy to pay for it on Amazon.com. Naturally, of course, the sequel to it (Ragamuffin) isn't in paperback, and isn't an ebook. ARGH.

I don't want to buy books that aren't ebooks anymore, okay? I am NOT going to buy this one until it is an ebook, no matter how guaranteeably awesome it probably is. I am done with buying hardbacks for keeps, and paying $4 for the paperback at Half Price isn't going to magically create space on my shelf for the book, or lighten its weight when I need to move later this year, or early next year. I'm hoping that the fact that Ragamuffin isn't a paperback yet correlates to the fact that it isn't an ebook yet, either. Maybe I'll email Tor or Tobias himself and ask.
