If you haven’t got an e-reader

Thanks to a commenter at Scalzi’s Whatever, I downloaded a copy of an e-pub converter/reader called Calibre, which is open-source and free. It takes a little thought to figure out which buttons you need to click to get where you want to go (not a lot; it’s pretty intuitive), but it works like a charm when you do get it going. I downloaded a copy of Scalzi’s free e-book “After the Coup,” a short story in the Old Man’s War universe and read it easily.

You can get a copy of the story too; just go to this page at Macmillan’s website and sign up.
