Even weirder, after I poked around on the BaenEbook site for a while longer, I eventually located a working link to both it, and another book that I stumbled upon that I’d not previously seen.

BTW, if you’ve not read it the 1st two books from the 1632 series is available at sherman’s link above. Baen is my favorite publisher, because they do a good job of providing value to regular readers (the CDs included in some of their hardbacks are bloody awesome.)

Baen seems to be one of the few publishers that is trying to intelligently ride the cyber wave rather than fight it.

They make a lot of books available for free, especially the first one in a series, especially older ones. This is based on the eminently logical premise that they aren’t going to sell many of a 20 year old series anyway, but if somebody likes the first free one, there’s a good chance he’ll buy he rest in the series.

Or in my shameless case, get them at the local free library.

Baen’s website has been pretty disorganized for a while. If I remember correctly, their free library used to be a good deal more extensive. May have had some policy shifts.
