It’s worth pointing out that all of these e-books can still (at the moment) be downloaded even now.

The files have never been removed from the servers, just the index on the Tor.com blog.

Thanks for the recs, Paul--and Brian, I'm glad you'll be following up on the links! But let's have more discussion and pointers from you and others. Why do you like the books you do? I loved Old Man's War because it was like Vonnegut's works--funny, moving and insightful. For latecomers, the premise is that instead of dying, old people can get new bodies and fight the bad guys in outer space. Far better than the shuffleboard circuit. Unlike many SF novels, this one makes me care for the characters. If readers like Old Mans' War, by the way, they might also go for The Memory of Mars, by Raymond Fisher Jones, which lacks the wit of Old Man's War but might appeal to the same readers. Thanks, David

I am sure that Starfish, by Peter Watts, will become a SF classic. Read it!

Orphans of Chaos was great fun and I bought the remaining 2 paperbacks of the trilogy.
