Created a new version 2 of my omnibus edition of H. Irving Hancock's "Dave Darrin at Annapolis" juvenile series. Uploaded for Sony and MobiPocket.

Created a new v2 of my omnibus edition of H. Irving Hancock's "Grammar School Boys" juvenile series for both Sony and MobiPocket. Book 3 of this book 4 series is current unavailable as an eBook, but this does not alter the enjoyment of the other three books.

[badgoodDeb]

Nevermind..... your new version shows up in "new posts" so I can find it there.

Created a new v2 of my omnibus edition of the 5 book "Young Engineers" juvenile series by H. Irving Hancock. Uploaded for Sony and MobiPocket.

Discovered a great new juvenile series last night - now released for both Sony and MobiPocket.

The "Submarine Boys" series, by "Victor G. Durham" (a "house name", of course) was a series of 8 books published between 1909 and 1912 narrating the exciting adventures of two boys on board submarines. PG currently have the first 6 books of the series, which I've made into an omnibus edition; I'll add the other two books to it if they are subsequently released. Book 3 is illustrated.

I love these late 19th/early 20th century juvenile series (as you may have noticed!). They portray a much more "innocent" world than today, which has now vanished, but still lives on in these books.

Enjoy!

Created a new version of my omnibus edition of Edgar B.P. Darlington's "Circus Boys" 5-book juvenile series, originally published between 1910 and 1920. To quote from the publisher:

"No call to the heart of the youth of America finds a readier response than the call of the billowing canvas, the big red wagons, the crash of the circus band and the trill of the ringmaster's whistle. It is a call that captures the imagination of old and young alike, and so do the books of this series capture and enthrall the reader, for they were written by one who, besides weilding a master pen, has followed the sawdust trail from coast to coast, who knows the circus people and the sturdy manliness of those who do and dare for the entertainment of millions of circus-goers when the grass is green. Mr. Darlington paints a true picture of circus life."

Uploaded for both Sony and MobiPocket (the previous version was created only for Sony).

Seeing that Fictionwise are currently promoting "Tarzan of the Apes" for $3.50 spurred me into doing a new (and much improved) version of the previous Tarzan anthology I created for the Sony Reader, this time for both Sony and MobiPocket. This volume contains the first five books in the Tarzan series:

1. Tarzan of the Apes
2. The Return of Tarzan
3. The Beasts of Tarzan
4. The Son of Tarzan
5. Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar

And all for free, rather than $3.50 per book .

Enjoy!

The rest of the series to follow over the next few days.

And likely a better crafted edition than the Fictionwise offerings.

I've never gotten into Tarzan, though I'm re-reading the Barsoom series now, courtesy of your splendid anthology. I just added the first five Tarzans to the SD card where I keep my Mobi volumes.

Thanks, Harry!

(And if you feel inspired, you might want to take a whack at the Otis Adelbert Kline stuff available on PG AU. It goes nicely on the same shelf with Burroughs. Now, if only the C. L. Moore "Jirel of Joiry" and "Northwest Smith" stuff would become available...)

Harry, would you mind if IMP versions of your Mobipocket versions were created using nrapallo's mobi2imp script once we are sure it makes proper IMP conversions?

[HarryT]

I don't mind at all, since I shan't be doing IMP versions myself.

[HarryT]

Uploaded volume 2 in my Edgar Rice Burroughs "Tarzan series", containing books 6-10 of the series as follows:

6: Jungle Tales of Tarzan
7: Tarzan the Untamed
8: Tarzan the Terrible
9: Tarzan and the Golden Lion
10: Tarzan and the Ant-Men

Versions uploaded for Sony and MobiPocket.

More in the series to follow - enjoy!

[HarryT]

More thrilling juvenile fiction from 1916; the exciting adventures of a boy fire-eater in an American circus. Something for all your children to try and copy!

Uploaded for Sony and MobiPocket. Enjoy!

[HarryT]

More early 20th century juvenile fiction. Very much in the style of "Tom Swift". Uploaded for Sony and MobiPocket.

Harry, that was our 3999th book.
Why not do another, so that we have a round 4000?

(I'm at work, so can add any more till this evening.)
