What’s better than free?

Not much in my opinion which is why I think libraries are pretty special. If you like free too and science fiction, I suggest you make your way over to Cory Doctorow’s (author of Little Brother) website so you can download his free and gripping novella, The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow.

“In a Disney-dominated future, a transhuman teenager engages in high velocity adventures until he meets the ‘meat girl’ of his dreams and is forced to choose between immortality and sex in one of Cory Doctorow’s most daring novellas.”

Pirates of the Stupid Seas

admin — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 16:43:25 +0000

Do you like Angry Birds or Crush the Castle? If so, you are gonna like Pirates of the Stupid Seas. It has same aim and shot concept as Angry Birds and Crush the Castle, but it also ramps up the challenge and fun by making it fast paced. Instead of being stationary, you are on moving pirate ship firing on other moving ships. You don’t always have the time to line up your shots cause ships are sailing away from you and as the you progress these same ships are also firing back at you. The objective is to destroy the sails of other ships thereby making them surrender so you can capture them. Every ship you capture gives you gold which you can then spend on upgrades for your ship at the Pirate Hangout. Overall, its a solid game. I would definitely recommend it as a way to waste some time.
