"Here is light. You will say that it is not a living entity, but you miss the point that it is more, not less. Without occupying space, it fills the universe. It nourishes everything, yet itself feeds upon destruction. We claim to control it, but does it not perhaps cultivate us as a source of food? May it not be that all wood grows so that it can be set ablaze, and that men and women are born to kindle fires?"

Honestly, I'd recommend getting those books in papercopy if at all possible. It's a great presentation.
I can't carry it for you, but I can carry you.

The only book I KNOW is worth the money on that list is BELKA, WHY DON'T YOU BARK....which is hauntingly good.

At $1 for 5 books, I'm grabbing it anyway, but that's great to hear.

∞ + 15 = ∞
I should add that Humble Bundle's book/comic/game bundles are particularly dangerous in this regard. A couple times a month now I get all, "Shoot this is all worth trying out for a dollar."
