What's on my Kindle

and actually Free at this time.

Michael Z. (Mad Mike) Williamson's Freehold

.David Drake's Redliners

David Drake's The Tank Lords

David Weber's On Basilisk Station - (Honor Harrington Book One)

David Weber's The Honor of the Queen - (Honor Harrington Book Two)

John Ringo's A Hymn Before Battle - Legacy of the Aldenata Book One

David Drake's Seas of Venus

John Ringo's Gust Front - Legacy of the Aldenata Book Two

Tom Kratman's Caliphate

There are a bunch of others.  However they are a bunch of Message Fiction and not "Science" Fiction.  The SciFi elements are just barely enough that they MIGHT be considered SciFi.  But in reality they are Message Fiction with delusions towards SciFi.  I keep removing all the Dreck from my kindle but Amazon keeps downloading it again.  I really need to take the time to remove them from my Amazon account entirely.

What on my Kindle

I just finished an interesting book.  It runs a little formulaic at times, but I really enjoyed it.

especially if you like SPACE MARINES, then you should try this book.

Decisively Engaged - (Warp Marine Corps Book 1)

I got it for free for Kindle, but it's now $3.99, but if you have Kindle Unlimited it is still free.

What's on my Kindle - The Prince by Jerry Pournelle

Unfortunately you can no longer purchase the Kindle edition of "The Prince", which is a shame, because it is a very fine book.

If you have the money to spend though, you can still purchase the Hardcover version of the book.

What's on my Kindle - Part Four - Elizabth Moon

Ms. Moon is another author who is very prolific.  And I will only put down the 2 series and a couple of individual books from other series of hers that I have on my kindle.  Even though I have read the other series, I don't have them on my Kindle and checked them out of the library because the publisher insists on such a high price for the Kindle versions of the books.  So I bought them at the half price store in paperback instead.  If the prices were more reasonable, I'd buy them again in Kindle version just to have them available when I travel.

Heris Serrano
This is actually a 3 book Omnibus version.  Part of the Serrano Legacy Series.  I have all of the books in paperback but I couldn't find them when I wanted to re-read them so I bought the whole 9 book series in 3 omnibus books.

The Serrano Connection
The second of three Omnibus books of the Serrano Legacy.

The Serrano Succession
The final Omnibus book of the Serrano Legacy.

Planet Pirates
Written with Anne McCaffrey and Jodi Lynn Nye, the trilogy brought together in one volume is VERY good.

I'm still waiting for an Omnibus Edition of Vatta's War to be put out, to save me a little bit of money.

Ms. Moon's Amazon.com Authors page is:  Elizabeth Moon

What's on my Kindle - Post Three - Anne McCaffrey (Tom McCaffrey)

Do you have any idea just how hard it is to list ALL of the books Ms. McCaffrey has written?  Either by herself, or with others?  Seriously, I would be typing for over an hour with all the links I'd have to make.  And my arthritis and carpal tunnel would make me pay for it later.

So to save myself that I should just direct you to her Authors page at Amazon.  And yes I HAVE read almost everything Ms. McCaffrey has written, either in hardback, paperback or E-book version.  I DO have the ENTIRE Pern series including the books she co wrote with her son and also the books he wrote after her death as a single author, in E-book format and most of it in paperback.

Anne McCaffrey

Click that to see a truly prodigious output from one author.  And ALL of it good.

What's on my Kindle Part Two - Lois McMaster Bujold

Now Ms. Bujold is VERY hard to list properly because of all the compilation omnibus volumes of her books, but I'll try. 

The first book I ever read of hers was Cordelia's Honor, which is actually two book in one, Shards of Honor and Barrayar.  After I read that, I was hooked.

Cordelia's Honor
I should note I first read it as a paperback and now I have it as a Kindle book.  In fact I have almost all of these books in paperback, and I still pull them out from time to time to enjoy getting lost in the worlds Ms. Bujold has created.

The Vorkosigan Saga

The Warriors Apprentice
These books will be listed a little out of order.  These are the order I first read them in, NOT the order in which the Authoress wrote and published them.

Falling Free

The Vor Game

Cetaganda

Ethan of Athos
This was a weird but fun book to read.

Brothers in Arms

Mirror Dance

Memory

Borders of Infinity 

Komarr

A Civil Campaign

Diplomatic Immunity

Captain Vorpatril Alliance

Cryoburn

And I await Gentleman Jole and The Red Queen which is being released in February with sweaty palms.

Then Ms. Bujold put out another series, the free sample I read only whetted my appetite for more.

The Sharing Knife part of The Wide Green World Series

Beguilement

Legacy

Passage

Horizon

Ms. Bujold has another series out there which I haven't as of yet read.  However it IS on my list of books to buy.

One thing you will notice about ALL of Ms. Bujold's works, is that she builds a coherent word picture of the world her stories inhabit, and if you close your eyes you can almost see it for yourself.

THAT is good writing.

What's on my Kindle Part One - Michael Z. Williamson

Since I'll be out of town for  almost a week with limited internet access, I'm pre-writing and scheduling some posts. 

Since I got an e-mail about just what books I enjoy reading, I figured I do a series of posts about what books I have on my Kindle, Kindle for PC App, Kindle for Android on my Cell Phone, and Kindle for Android on my Tablet.  Yes I do have that many devices set up to read Kindle books.  I like to read.

You will notice that many of them are Science Fiction/Fantasy.

I'm going to list a lot of the authors and books I read on my Kindle.

The First book I read by Mike was The Hero, written in the John Ringo Aldenata Universe.

The Hero

Then I ran across his Freehold Universe

Freehold

The Weapon

Contact With Chaos

Rogue

Better To Beg Forgiveness

Do Unto Others

When Diplomacy Fails

His new Temporal Displacement Series which is only one book right now

A Long Time Until Now

And his compiliation book

Wisdom From My Internet

He has some others, but there isn't a Kindle Version of them and I don't have them yet.

To see his full listing of books go to his Amazon.com Authors Page.

This is the first post of "What's on my Kindle".  I plan on having at least one of these posts a day while I am out of town.

Brigid's Book - Saving Grace - A Story of Adoption - is now available on Kindle

And I just bought it.  The deadtree version is currently sold out, but since I do 90% of my reading on my computer, phone or tablet I was just waiting for the Kindle version to come out.

You can get your own Kindle Copy at the following link: L.B. Johnson - Saving Grace - A Story of Adoption

I also bought Michael Z. Williamson's A Long Time Until Now

And since I missed Travis Taylor's next two novels in his Tau Ceti Agenda, I got those two as well, One Good Soldier and Trail of Evil.

I'm still waiting for OldNFO aka J.L. Curtis to announce the release of the next book in his Grey Man series.  I was one of the Alpha readers on parts of it to catch some of the errors and I CANNOT wait until I can finish reading the rest.  I keep re-reading the sections he sent me over and over plus the first two of the series to try to keep from having withdrawal symptoms.

If you don't hear from me over the weekend, I'm either at the range shooting a couple of new toys or reading.
