Via the RSS feed from SFSignal, news that H. Beam Piper’s awarding winning novel, Lone Star Planet is available online at the Gutenberg Project. Nice effort, though I question the people at Gutenberg’s statement that this work is not copyrighted in the US. Piper died 40 years, so he doesn’t need the income, and his book is online for free, but I was under the impression Piper’s copyright still was held by someone. Perhaps my information is outdated.
