Ragamuffin: Chapter One
It’s the day after Pixel Stained Technopeasant day, but I still have something cool for you: the first chapter of Ragamuffin. Tor has given me permission again to post the first third of Ragamuffin for free as a sampler. I’ll be posting a chapter a week until May 24th, after which I’ll be posting a chapter a weekday.
It had been three hundred and fifty-seven years, three months, and four days since the emancipation of humanity. And for most, it did them little good.

Ach! I was so cool there for a bit, but now everybody can read it. At least I’m further along than Chapter 1, so I’m still cool. Just a little less than yesterday.

Very good stuff. I was real excited to read it, and no I’m happy to say that it was great. I can’t freakin’ wait for the rest!

I enjoyed Crystal Rain quite a bit and am looking forward to Ragamuffin. I wish you’d hurry up on the posting, I tear through a chapter in minutes. That or get Tor to sell the book earlier. I’ve run out of good SF.
