Little-known science fiction A listing of obscure science fiction stories by the famous and nearly unknown. The fact that many are free is an incentive to fill one's Kindle.

Good selection of free books Despite a handful of dead ends, the overwhelming majority of the books (say...98%) were still available. Many good authors, a few lesser lights, and a handful that are interesting as...historical artifacts only. Still, well worth the money.
Mystee Pulcine –
As advertised 6 of the links were broken, but otherwise this was a super easy way to find a ton of free books!
Timothy Carter –
This reference book delivers on its promise to provide a list of free science fiction.

Good list and links for SF&F Public Domain books Older books, but still some gems among the Author's list. There aren't many "classic" novels, but many are written by awards winning authors.

Good list poorly formatted. Nothing else to say. It does what it sets out to do. Unfortunate that it is also setting out to advertise the author's own work via a link on every page. Still worth a look though. Good list poorly formatted. Nothing else to say. It does what it sets out to do.

Great resource This is a great resource for finding early science fiction. Listed alphabetically with brief description about author and books. A must for the sci-fi addict.

Useful source of classic sf Very helpful for those looking for something a bit different from the usual classic science fiction stories and novels out there.
