An apprentice builds a boat as a man looks on.
1) In case you're wondering, the new story in "The Three Lands Omnibus" is Law Links, a novel which I'm also serializing online. Here's the full list of stories in "The Three Lands Omnibus."

2) I've tried to keep the price of "The Three Lands Omnibus" as low as possible. But for those of you who can't buy it for some reason, free review copies are available; just e-mail me for a copy. Let me know in your e-mail which e-book format you prefer. If you have an account at Smashwords, let me know, so that I can give you access to all the e-book formats.

Your review may be as short or long as you want, and it needn't be favorable, if you find you don't care for the e-book. I want honest reviews.

You may post your review anywhere you want, including at your own blog or Website, but I'd especially appreciate reviews at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Smashwords, and Goodreads.

3) The Three Lands story "Re-creation," which remains online, is now also available as a free e-book.

4) I've updated my Website. Here's the latest updates.
