One of my favorite guests from I Should Be Writing, Cory Doctorow, has a new book out! A YA book focusing on kids, online rights and Homeland Security, Little Brother is available in hardcover and audiobook. Cory’s strongly against DRM - digital rights management - and refuses to release his book through Audible or iTunes until they give artists a DRM-free option. You can get the audiobook off his site, or at eMusic through their audiobook program (but sign up or upgrade to the two-credit-a-month option).

And Cory was kind enough to let me put Chapter 1 in my feed so that you’ll be able to sample the book. Thanks Cory, and I hope you all like this treat!
