Libro gratis : The default trigger

A través de @doctorow he visto que está disponible para su descarga gratuita el cómic “The default trigger”, con tintes de ciencia ficción de futuro cercano creado por Chistopher Kosek.

El tebeo nos habla sobre la dificultad de hacer frente a los préstamos de estudios tan típicos en EE.UU. y que parece que pronto veremos implantados mayoritariamente en España.

Libro gratis : Pen Pal

pen palSolo durante el día de hoy estará disponible para su descarga gratuita “Pen Pal” de Francesca Forrester. Aquí os dejo la sinopsis:

Pen Pal starts with a message in a bottle and ends with revolution.

Em, a child from a floating community off the Gulf Coast, drops a message into the sea. It ends up in the hands of Kaya, an activist on the other side of the world, imprisoned above the molten lava of the Ruby Lake. Em and Kaya are both living precarious lives, at the mercy of societal, natural, and perhaps supernatural forces beyond their control. Kaya’s letters inspire Em, and Em’s comfort Kaya—but soon their correspondence becomes more than personal. Individual lives, communities, and the fate of an entire nation will be changed by this exchange of letters.

Pen Pal is a story of friendship and bravery across age, distance, and culture, at the intersection of the natural and supernatural world.

Audiolibro gratis : Someone comes to town, someone leaves town

Los libros de Cory Doctorow suelen estar disponibles de forma gratuita en su propia página web, pero en esta ocasión el autor canadiense nos ofrece en formato podcast el audiolibro “Someone comes to town, someone leaves town”.

Aquí os dejo la sinopsis del libro:

This is a fantasy novel about a man whose father is a mountain and whose mother is a washing machine, who moves from small-town Ontario to Toronto to help build a citywide meshing wireless network with a crustypunk dumpster-diver.

Parece un poco alejado de sus temáticas habituales, pero creo que le voy a dar una oportunidad.
