Dreamsnake
One of Susan's favorite science fiction novels is going to be available at the BookViewCafe on April 26: Vonda McIntyre's Dreamsnake.
This will be an e-book, and I have no information about its pricing (free? Paid? Who knows; either way, you shouldn't miss it). Apparently, there have been some special perks attached to this edition, so check it out.
Really. If you haven't read this one yet, you're missing out on a classic.
