books that are too limited like Kindle only books should be disallowed just to make it easier. If a Kindle only book was nominated and then went on to win, there are those of us that would not be able to read it.

I don't expect any of those would necessarily be exclusions, but people should know about them before voting. |

I wouldn't want to do it for tons of nominations that aren't even seconded, but I'd be willing to do a 'where it's available' list for the books that get through into the voting if it would be helpful to folks.

I'll third Verdant Skies by Steven Jordan if I may.
He has been very kind posting free ebooks here and I feel somewhat guilty about never having purchased any due to my limited funds. I can, barely, afford this book, I couldn't afford FlashForward by Robert J. Sawyer. Besides I am rather taken with Mr. Jordan's premise and time travel stuff leaves me cold. Oh, yes, DRM free too!

Given the prices of Flashforward I rescind my nomination. Even $7.99 is too much given that I can get 10% off the pBook ($7.99) at any time and sometimes even more.
