These are the Science Fiction ebooks books released on Kindle between 6/21/2011 and 6/28/2011. This list includes a massive set of unpublished Star Wars books in Kindle format. There are some very good books in this list.
For a general introduction and statement about why this blog exists see About the New Ebook Release Blog.
The book lists is divided into two portions, the books that are published by an agency publisher (which generally means they are of more interest) or which I personally found interesting, and those which are not.
The second list will contain some very interesting books on average, but will also have a much larger number of books to look through. For a more detailed discussion of this distinction see Agency Books
Below are some books that I found interesting during this timeperiod. I'm sure that there are other interesting books, I encourage people to point out good books in the comments.
| Title | Author | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Lilith: A Snake in the Grass (The Four Lords of the Diamond) | Jack L. Chalker | I liked the 4 Lords of the Diamond series. They have a lot of Jack Chalker's standard tropes, but I didn't think they were over the top. 7 is near the upper end of my 'reprint' price range however. |
| Star Wars: The Han Solo Adventures | Brian Daley | One of the original, pre Zhan Star Wars Novels, this contains three short novels about Han Solo's early career. I enjoyed these. |
| Star Wars: Children of the Jedi: Star Wars Series | Barbara Hambly | Barbara Hambly is one of my favorite writers. |
| A Hole in Space | Larry Niven | Another Niven collection. |
| Star Wars: Allegiance | Timothy Zahn | Zahn is one of the best writers for Star Wars |
| Star Wars: Outbound Flight | Timothy Zahn | |
| Star Wars: Survivor's Quest | Timothy Zahn | |
| Star Wars: The Hand of Thrawn: Specter of the Past | Timothy Zahn | |
| Star Wars: The Hand of Thrawn: Vision of the Future | Timothy Zahn | |
| Star Wars: The Thrawn Trilogy: Dark Force Rising: Star Wars: Volume 2 of a Three-Book Cycle | Timothy Zahn | |
| Star Wars: The Thrawn Trilogy: Heir to the Empire: Star Wars, Volume I | Timothy Zahn | The novel that started the HUGE Star Wars novel business. Note that the 20th anniversary version is being published in September. You might want to purchase that instead. Star Wars: Heir to the Empire: The 20th Anniversary Edition |
| Star Wars: The Thrawn Trilogy: The Last Command: Volume 3 (Book 3) | Timothy Zahn |
