Back when I was soliciting space opera reading suggestions*, a reader e-mailed me (or maybe he commented, I can’t recall) about a book called Space Viking by H. Beam Piper. I saw a few copies on eBay, but never acquired one.
Now, I see that I won’t have to. Viva Project Gutenberg!
OK, all you geniuses, what’s a good gizmo on which to read e-books?

I’m about 3/4 of the way through A Deepness In the Sky by Vernor Vinge. Great book and I think it qualifies as space opera. I think it would also satisfy “hard” SF fans – no warp speed, no artificial gravity, no matter transporters.
Woohoo, Space Viking! I’m gonna have to dig that one up again.
