Avon's sf web page is
http://avonbooks.com/avon/sf.html
and this month has a nice piece by Sherry Tepper on women and change.
(They ran a piece by me on cloning in March, but I think that's now
inaccessible. Had a nice picture of identity-masked sheep...)
They list a new Rudy Rucker novel, FREEWARE. Presumably third in his live
robots sequence. Good news!
