Hi all,

Vernor Vinge is one of the most influential SF authors out there, and he's widely credited with seeing the future of online communities in his books 'True Names' and 'A Fire upon the Deep'. Quite apart from that, he's won a whole bunch of Hugo awards.

Anyway, I was pretty astonished to discover that he's put the entire text of his latest novel, Rainbows End, online: http://vrinimi.org/rainbowsend.html

It's a fantastic book, and I wanted to put it on my new Sony Reader. A couple of minutes with PielrfGUI and here's the result - normal formatting, with full TOC. Hope you like it!
