I'm monitoring TOR for info on the January 2018 stuff -- so far, no clue.

Haven't been posting here, but haven't forgotten to check. It's a bit irritating to check their website to see the same details coming soon wth an ocassional giveaway to enter (usually with a very short time to even enter that).

I miss that monthly find.

It's back! https://ebookclub.tor.com

ETA: Oops, apparently it was back in .february with Robert Jordan's "Eye of the World" -- I got no email and when checking the site in February did not see it.

Silly me, with last book announced only two weeks ago, I wasn't expecting April's to be announced now. Thanks to Familiar Diversion's post, I know now.

As usual, download from https://ebookclub.tor.com/.

It's one I've been planning to read, All Systems Red by Martha Wells.

Heh yeah I also missed Eye of the World then decided I wasn't that upset about missing it lol.

I'm wicked excited about All Systems Red though I'm not sure if I'll manage to read it.

Reply to post #22 (show post):

I don't think so. For booklikes bookclubs, any post group members make to dashboard linked to the current book automatically adds to that book's discussion (clicking "back to club" at top of group/discussion-room discussions like this one also takes you to the current book discussion).

TOR site bookclubs/reading groups seem to be for very long running series, often for re-reading earlier books. Maybe one will crop up once Murderbot Diaries has more books published.

Possibly Macmillan site will do one. You can signup for their reading group newsletter righthand side of https://us.macmillan.com/reading-group-gold

I just checked -- because they've had such a weird schedule with anywhere between two to four or more weeks between books and such sudden death Windows to download -- but so far not seeing the next ebook. This close to the end/start month, I'm on the lookout.

I am so glad I read All Systems Red -- I almost missed the opportunity.

I haven't forgot; recent checking doesn't show a new download yet.

Okay, so on 8/14/2018 I checked and got "Acheron" (never got email notice). Now I got an email that through August 31 it's "The Black Company."

Oh well, made discussions for both for August and September, respectively.

And a new one to download: All the Birds in the Sky by Charlie Jane Anders. (Should also fit a few Halloween BINGO shelves). Publisher page with more info is at https://us.macmillan.com/books/9780765379955.
