RealmShift

"a gripping, thought-provoking tale"

"a novel I am loath to put down. A most surprising read. Quite a ride"

"fast-paced and engrossing"

MageSign

"a fast-paced ride through a visceral reality"

"a fast paced supernatural adventure that will leave readers rethinking how they view the Cosmos"

"a gritty tale of blood rituals, mystery, and mysticism… grabs hold of the reader and doesn’t let go"

"fantastic qualities … horrific at times... I highly recommend it"

Wise Words

"Things need not have happened to be true. Tales and dreams are the shadow-truths that will endure when mere facts are dust and ashes, and forgot." - Morpheus, The Sandman - Dream Country (Neil Gaiman)

"A powerful agent is the right word. Whenever we come upon one of those intensly right words in a book or a newspaper the resulting effect is physical as well as spiritual, and electrically prompt." - Mark Twain

"At the beginning there was the Word - at the end just the Cliche." - Stanislaw J Lec

Drive Thru Stuff

@mlvalentine on Twitter pointed me in the direction of this very cool site – DriveThruStuff.com.

It’s an online store where you can buy and download all kinds of… well, stuff. There’s RPG (Role Playing Game) stuff, comics, wargaming and so on. But of course, my real interest lies in the fiction sections: DriveThruFantasy, DriveThruHorror and DriveThruSciFi. These pages are packed with all kinds of great fiction, mainstream titles and indies, all at a wide variety of prices.

I’ve now got my books available there and as a special promotion you can buy them both for US$5. Usually the ebook editions of RealmShift and MageSign are US$3.50 each (both on Smashwords and DriveThru) but you can buy them both as a bundle from DriveThru for US$5 total. I’m also glad to report that Smashwords will soon be offering a similar option to bundle books and I’ll be making the same offer available over there. The Kindle editions of my books are a bit more expensive at US$3.99 on Amazon. You can find my stuff on DriveThru by clicking here.

So head on over and have a look around. I think it’s a great site with loads of stuff on offer. Leave a comment and let me know what you think of it.

One thing I would recommend is on the Comic side of things you can find some of the old Caliber titles which I grew up on and I even managed to get in touch with the publisher over at my site for an interview. really cheap for some digital editions of out of print comics.
