I mention Angry Robot Books some time ago as producing a range of short novels that fill the gap when you are awaiting the next installment of your favorite current epic. Be is RR Martin, Fiest, Jorden or Rowlings latest offering your awaiting you will find something to entertain you in Angry Robot Books offerings.

Zoo City is released in September in the UK, as i mention in my prior post Angry Robot supply pre releases for reveiw and also electronic formats.

So with out much a do I'm going to review Zoo City By Lauren Beurkes... but not today. Today I'm looking for a cat, and that is a story in itself. The review will make an appearance later next week once I have actually sat down to read it.

In the mean time check out what else is coming from Angry Robot in the coming months

Kindle, Apps or ebooks




Books are  a art, bound, created and crafted. Not just the story within but the physical form it's self. A book can be a hard backed, stitched leaf work of precision bound in leather like a piece of art with as much put into it as the story it holds. It as easily can be a soft backed mass produced, perfectly bound novel made of recycled plastic and wood chip. More and more a book is not whats important the story is, e readers or ebooks make this more so. Applications on your phone or pad. Digital books formatted for propriety devices such as a Kindle from Amazon.


These give you access to hundreds of electronicly formatted stories books no longer under copyright, books available freely on the net or to buy through various application stores.
