Thanks for the plug, Steve, but this post isn’t quite accurate. Yes, Ansible Editions has prepared lots of free ebooks for the TAFF site — see the cover gallery at https://taff.org.uk/ebooks.php?all — and they’re downloadable with no strings attached, though those who enjoy them are invited to donate to TAFF. However, the Sladek NEW MAPS and Budrys BEYOND THE OUTPOSTS are not free and have nothing to do with TAFF. They are published by agreement with the author’s estates (i.e. their widows), who receive royalties on every copy sold.
