Tor.com launches — many free books

July 21st, 2008

Tor.com, the new website for Tor Books, has launched officially. And they’re offering up for free download the bunches of books that they were giving away to newsletter subscribers in their run-up to launch.

Among the books you can grab in DRM-free formats: Old Man’s War, Spin, Farthing, Crystal Rain, and much more. Plus a zillion gorgeous wallpapers from cover art.

Oh, and they cover games a bit too.

    Go figure. I bought Lord of the Isles quite a while ago and somehow never gotten around to reading it… Now it is free! :-)

    i got excited when i misread that third book title as “Farting.”

    Also, i am four years old.

    Wonderful to see another publisher follow in the footsteps of Baen Books. Giving away their back catalog for free has worked for them (or so they say on their website).
