I just read Shards of Earth (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/55278507-shards-of-earth) and enjoyed it. Fun, action oriented space opera. I would recommend it.

I'm not even sure what else to say here... so much for the Three Laws ;-)

What happen?

EFF counts!

If you give to your local public radio broadcaster (the one that carries NPR programming in your area) then yes, it generally does. From my local station, WLRN:
"Q: Is my donation tax-deductible? A. Contributions to WLRN are tax-deductible. However, IRS regulations require that your charitable deductions be reduced by the Fair market Value of any goods or services you receive as a result of the contributions. The Fair Market Value assigned to an item by its manufacturer is the reasonable retail price if you were to buy that item in a store. If you wish to take the full tax deduction for your WLRN contribution, you must refuse all premiums before we mail them or return them to us unopened. For any additional tax information, we urge you to consult your personal financial advisor."
