New site design: This page was getting far too long. I hope the new page makes this a bit more more interesting to navigate.
What if I wrote a book and nobody read it? Well, that's why I'm offering these e-books free of charge. I figure if I went to the bother of writing them maybe someone will be interested in reading them. All are in .Lit format and can be read in Microsoft's free Reader program both. They are also available in HTML format. in zipped format and can be opened with Winzip, Windows zipped folders or most other archive programs. They are also available as Adobe Reader .pdf files - most of those are also free - from my storefront at www.lulu.com/jonathan27 For those who prefer to read "real" books, most can be purchased in trade paperback and hardcover there as well. (It is my intention to eventually get everything into print, but it takes time.
TANSTAAFL
These e-books really are free. Read them a thousand times each or more, make copies and send them to your friends, just don't change so much as a comma, even if I put it in the wrong place. However, in most books I will be mentioning a suggested charity, so if after reading a book you think that maybe it was worth a dollar or two, why not send that as a donation. If you don't like my choice of charity choose one of your own. That's okay too.

The World of Maiyim - Fantasy and Fantasy-SF Adventures
Maiyim is a world covered with water and on which the only land is comprised by three major archipelagos and several somewhat smaller island groups and a few stray isolated islands. It is also a world of magic. When first planned, I only had a series of four stories in mind (The Maiyim Tetralogy). However, as time went on, the possibilities were to great to stop at only four stories and so the world grew. I set myself a challenge to write the various stories in historical milieus other than Medieval. The Maiyim Tetralogy takes place in a world that is sociologically and technologically analogous to the turn of the Twentieth Century. The second series, another tetralogy called Ars Nova Magica (incidently Latin for "The New Magical Art") starts approximately sixty years after the final story of the first series when the world is similar to the late 1960's through the mid-1970's. The third series (Ars Scientiaque Magicae or "The Art and Science of Magic") takes place some two centuries after the end of Ars Nova Magica and is a hybrid of Fantasy and Science Fiction. There are also various connecting stories and side stories between the main stories, making this a full and rich fantasy world.

Gaenor's Quest Fantasy Adventure
Gaenor was always an odd duck in her hometown of Narmouth, but few would have expected her to apply for the job as an adepts' apprentice and none at all would have expected her to become an adept of worldwide renown. This series follows her adventures with fellow adept Artur the Southlander as they and their allies attempt no less than to save the world. Gaenor's Quest is a fantasy adventure set in a 19th Century milieu.

A Plethora of Deities Humorous Fantasy
This did not start out as a series, but gradually grew into one. It involves various mortals who in one way or another get involved with the gods of the Ancient world. The recurring cast includes the gods of ancient Mesopotamia, Mother Nature, and a demoness who's been possessed by a human soul.

The Terralano Venture Science Fiction - Fantasy Hybrid
This also started out as a one-time story about science-technology using humans who encounter magic-using aliens in deep space. Due to popular demand, however, I decided to write a sequel and have a third story in mind as well. Like some of my other stories these are both science fiction and fantasy with touches of humor, satire and social commentary.

The Wayfarers Fantasy Adventure
The world is made of islands of stability floating through the ever-changing Wild. Most humans can only live and work in the stabilities and their Wild cousins, the Kenlienta can only survive in the Wild. They truly live in two different worlds. The Ancient and Honorable Guild of Wayfarers bridges the gap between these two worlds. Fantasy in an 18th Century milieu.
