ebooks Honor Harrington
Alex
i am looking for ebooks of the Honor Harrington series. I already own the first 14 books
as PDF. Have you any idea where to get the newer books?
I own all books, but i would prefer them as pdfs.

But not in .pdf format. (Not without doing conversions at any rate.)

If you want to do the conversion yourself, RTF to .pdf
is particularly easy. Download OpenOffice (if you do
not already have it.) Read the RTF into OpenOffice and
export the result out in .pdf. Just for fun, I took my
ARC of _Torch_of_Freedom_ and converted it to .pdf. It
took about two minutes from start to finish.
Baen deserves enormous credit for their support of multiple
formats without any of that annoying Digital Rights
Protection stuff. Whenever I purchase from Baen, I
always purchase in electronic form.

Fictionwise.com seems to have 16 in multiformat (which includes pdf).
Not yet Storm from the Shadows or Torch of Freedom though.

books as paperbacks. If I see a Baen book with a CD in it, I buy it in
hardcover instead. That is where I get all my Baen e-books. I had to
buy Hell Hath No Fury in hardcover to get the e-book of Hell's Gate
because I physically couldn't hold my paperback copy of Hell's Gate.
Still love re-reading Honor books in mobi format at work on my Palm. A
physical book would be too obvious.

If you do like Wayn and buy a book with CD in electronic from Baen ($6)
the download options will also allow the CD to be downloaded and, say,
burnt to a CD. I haven't got broadband at home so did that at the
public library.

You can now do the same thing in MS Word 2007. Not sure about Word Perfect.

http://baencd.thefifthimperium.com
provides access to all known book CDs, with the ability
to download them. The Storm from the Shadows CD should
contain most of them (with the exception of "Storm from the
SHadows" and "Torch of Freedom"). Downloading the CD images
is legal!.
