Best of the Gutenberg books I read in 2025
Project Gutenberg is a fantastic treasure trove filled to the brim with over 75,000 books.
In 2025 I read several books and short stories that are now in the public domain. Here are the most noteworthy.
Books
Little Fuzzy by H. Beam Piper (1962)
252 pages
Short science fiction novel about a planet in deep space which is being mined for "sunstones". The discovery of a small humanoid furry race set of a chain of events. This book breathes US culture, but is non the less a lovely read.
Ziska - The Problem of a Wicked Soul by Marie Corelli (1898)
206 pages
A Gothic novel set in Egypt. A group of English tourists visits Cairo when the mysterious "Princess Zika" appears. Two friends fall in love with her. A spooky story about love and revenge.
Short stories
Let's Get Together by Isaac Asimov (1957)
18 pages
Short story set in a world where the Cold War has endured for a century.
The Black Kiss by Robert Bloch, Henry Kuttner (1937)
20 pages
A horror short story. I almost never read horror stories, this one I enjoyed.
