To be frank, a lot of indie books sort of miss the mark they’re shooting for. But there are a lot of gems hidden in the mud.
For starters, I recommend Traitor by Mark Eller.

The first chapter is clumsily written, but the story draws you in and the author found his stride a few chapters later–an editor would have made him rewrite the first chapters, but it’s still an engaging story.
I also found a really cool story by Zette involving a kitten, an alien test pilot, and a satirical look at internet forums.
Its title is Sub-Textual Evidence for the Existence of Alien Life and the Extrapolation of Internet Protocols. Ain’t that a mouthfull?
Unfortunately I can’t download it because Nook for PC just doesn’t work like it should. :angry:
Here’s a link to its smashwords page, though:
