More ebooks obtained thanks to the above-mentioned sale. Another mech/military sci-fi called Cartwright's Cavaliers, supernatural horror Chalk, and military sci-fi Titan. Some fine fiction ahead for me. These ebooks are 99 cents or free. All I need now is more time to read.

Day two dawns upon the super summer sale. Last night, I returned home and shopped. One of my purchases included tales of mecha, or giant robots. Think Pacific Rim. These limbed machines "are usually—but not always—large, humanoid vehicles controlled by a pilot. Mecha are commonly bipedal, although they come in a dizzying variety of shapes and sizes. There is some debate as to what qualifies as mecha and what doesn't. Much like art or pornography, one knows it when one sees it."
I don't read much mecha, but for free or 99 cents, I'm inclined to give it a try. One of my ebook selections last night was Adam S. Furman's Collateral Damage: A Kaiju Thriller. I'm familiar with kaiju. According to the Urban Dictionary, they are a "type of creature exceedingly common in Japan. Usually over 200 feet tall, they are known to frequently wander into cities and cause massive real estate damage."
The story is described thusly: Destructive Battles Rage Between Hellish Kaiju and Giant Mech Protectors.
The sides and the stakes are set. I'll review the tale in due course. But right now, I'm awash in ebooks—the sale is all ebooks—and six more shopping days remain.
Visit the sale. Explore new genres. Sample the wares of hard-working authors. More tomorrow.
