    I’d finally get a digital copy of Solzhenitsyn’s Cancer Ward. I’ve been putting it off, as you can’t use coupons and I can’t really justify buying it when I have a physical copy. I have adored that book since I was about 14, so my (Dad’s) copy is somewhat worn. If I won first prize, I’d go all out and buy the entire series of A Song of Ice and Fire, as I’m just about to finish the second book, and desperately need to find out what happens next! If I had anything left over, I’d get the second book in Trudi Canavan’s Age of the Five trilogy, as the first was fantastic.

    Here are four books available from Kobo that were recommended by TOR.com reviewers this morning:

    Hari Kunzru, Gods Without Men
    Robert Jackson Bennett, The Troupe

    Can’t resist a chance at free stuff. I’ve dropped some heavy hints for a Kobo Glo and plan to buy some travel ebooks for a trip to Europe in May. In particular, some of the brief $1.99 books from Rick Steves covering specific sights like the Louvre, Versailles and some walks around Paris.

  • KrisMarasca

    Jonathan Kellerman has a new book coming out in February 2013. I’d definitely be grabbing that!! Any other titles that caught my eye during my weekly forays through Barnes & Noble & the NYT Best Seller list would be purchased as well.

  • Chris Macdonald

    First on my wish list would be The Apocalypse Codex by Charles Stross, then I’d consider adding more from Stross. If possible I’d like to add some books by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky if they are available, I love Roadisde Picnic so I’d like to try some of the other books they wrote, but they’re hard to find in paperback or hardback. I also liked the first two books in the Ringworld series by Larry Niven, so more of his books would be on my list as well.

  • drhoovey

    I have this theory that some of those doorstoppers that intimidate me might be easier to tackle in ebook form in that every time I read I won’t be confronted with the heft of all those pages ahead. So I’d like to try something like Nicolas Kazantazakis’ The Odyssey: A Modern Sequel and maybe the Neal Stephenson Baroque Cycle…but there’s shorter stuff too..I’m a big fan of older SF and I’m glad that works of writers from the 60′s and 70′s, writers like Brian Aldiss and John Brunner are available as ebooks.

  • http://www.facebook.com/ingeborg.rodarte Ingeborg Rodarte

    I say totally obsessed ,issues about ebooks are spreading I’ve come into many sites that talks about ebooks and e-readers,tablets etc. I myself loves ebook too , I get them from bookboon.com because they’re free
