A SF/F book collection from Humble Bundle
Tachyon Books releasing twenty books for $18 in PDF, epub, and Mobi format, featuring Brandon Sanderson, Bruce Sterling, and a host of other authors, male and female. Most of the books are novels, there are a few short story collections. A couple of the books I absolutely will not touch, but a lot of them look quite interesting. And at less than a buck per, certainly a good deal.
As usual, no DRM.
The charity for this bundle is Gameheads, described as: "We are a tech training program that uses video game design, development and DevOps to create diverse talent and bold new voices, train youth of color for the tech eco-system, and prepare them for college, career and civic life. Teaching areas include: Project management, art and animation, software development and programming fundamentals, project management, game design, level design, video game history/theory and more." Sounds like a worthwhile charity to me! You can adjust the percentage of your purchase for how much goes to the charity with sliders, personally I try to split it into rough thirds.
This bundle just launched today and will be up for another twenty days.
