Best Sellers Rank: #22,134 in Kindle
#45 in Science Fiction Anthologies (Kindle)
#61 in Science Fiction Anthologies (Books)
#341 in Space Opera Science Fiction (Kindle)
Customer Reviews: 4.8 out of 5 stars 132 ratings

Baen doesn’t have the same kind of rating system as Amazon (though Bread Alone is available there if you prefer a non-Amazon source…) but in addition to Bread Alone we did do a requested Liaden Universe “holiday story” for Baen — you can find it on their website at: https://www.baen.com/every_storm_a_rainbow … that’s a free read for December and into January … and there’s a bonus for some of you — Baen’s having a Liaden ebook sale. Right There are 24 Lee and Miller ebook titles available, each at $1 off until December 31….
