Well you certainly know your authors. Good selection to start with. But can I suggest a little information on the authors and the history of the book as well as the excerpt from each book? For instance, what Movie or TV show did, ' City of the Living Dead & The Long View by Fletcher Pratt & Laurence Manning' inspire?  .

Hi Australian Panther. Thanks for checking the site out.

On every ebook there is a link that says "Book Details" near the top, right above the long excerpt and the gallery. Expand that and you get some more info about each book itself.

The entry for "City of the Living Dead..." says in part:

The City of the Living Dead is the first exploration of the concept of virtual reality. What happens when an entire civilization lives their entire lives plugged into machines? This classic dystopian novelette has been called the prefiguring story or the inspiration for the Matrix trilogy of films.

The word "Matrix" is linked to Wikipedia in this case.

Below that are brief bios of the authors and links to more info about them.

Hope this helps.
