Tor.com Hopes To Be SciFi / Fantasy Community Destination
SciFi publisher site Tor.com has their grand opening tomorrow (July 20 2008), promising:
Original fiction from star authors. Galleries of images from the field’s best artists. News and commentary about not just Tor books, but the SF world overall. Topical coverage of major events like San Diego Comic Con (July 23-27) and the World Science Fiction Convention (August 6-10). Weblog posts and guest appearances by some of the most interesting personalities and thinkers around. And your own feedback and discussions, plus tools to enable you to track the subjects and conversations you care about the most.
Tor.com has been giving away an ebook a week to their newsletter subscribers, and they will also be making all those books available for download on their website for a limited time.
