For the next two weeks, Humble Bundle is working with a cross-section of publishers to try out a Pay What You Can ebook sale. This promotion features 8 amazing literary works from a prodigious league of award-winning authors, including Cory Doctorow, Neil Gaiman, Lauren Beukes, Paolo Bacigalupi, and more.
