science fiction eBooks

Hi guys,
I’m Holly from Comma Press, a not-for-profit publishing company that specialises in short fiction, namely in the genres of crime, horror and science fiction. I hope you don’t mind me posting here, but we’ve been putting together a list of sci-fi eBooks that I think would really interest you guys. They are:
Sara Maitland’s Guardian-recommended MOSS WITCH, a collection that combines fairytale with scientific theory. Her writing often places an emphasis on the female perspective, and her hybrid style of writing creates a truly spellbinding collection.
‘Simply dazzling; my
woodland walks will never be the same.' – New Scientist.
Adam Marek’s award-winning THE STONE THROWER and
INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR SWALLOWING, two books that offer a warped vision of
modern life as it could have been.
'...Addictively
off-kilter. The stories are likely to stay in the back of your mind for a long
time.' - Litro
Magazine on THE STONE THROWER.
LITMUS, an anthology that offers a fictionalised
snapshot of history’s most influential eureka moments.
*Selected for The Observer's Best Books of the 2011 list.*
WHEN IT CHANGED, an anthology that sees writers collaborate with leading scientists to create science fiction rooted in the present.
'A diamond of
compression.'
– Financial Times.
LEMISTRY, a series of works written by
celebrated authors and inspired by the wonderfully imaginative sci-fi writer
Stanislaw Lem.
'An engaging
celebration of Stanislaw Lem. Those who love his work will find much to
admire.'
- Publishers Weekly.
BIO-PUNK, an anthology of eerie tales from the
extreme end of the research spectrum.
'Fascinating reading.' - Financial
Times
Featuring celebrated and award-winning authors
such as Frank Cottrell Boyce, Sarah Hall and Brian Aldiss, they’re a must-read
for those interested in all avenues of science fiction – especially now that
some are discounted up to half price. These titles are all available on four
different platforms: Kindle, Kobo, Google Play and iBooks, so just follow the
link, choose your platform and see what takes your fancy:
