Each month, the Tor.com eBook Club gives away a free sci-fi/fantasy ebook to club subscribers. We’re excited to announce that the pick for September 2018 is the Nebula Award-winning ALL THE BIRDS IN THE SKY by the Hugo Award-winning Charlie Jane Anders! (Wow.)

As the battle between magic and science wages in San Francisco against the backdrop of international chaos, Laurence and Patricia are forced to choose sides. But their choices will determine the fate of the planet and all mankind.
