Sadly, it's out of print. But the online edition will never die.

Until recently, the book was obligated and still bringing in ad revenue. Now that it's freed up, it's time to do standalone editions. |

That would be really cool, since it sounds from the excerpt like something I would enjoy reading, but I'm not going to stare at a computer screen to do it.
Oh, yeah, and you should be sure you have a paypal account set up. |

I passed the files on to Jon, since he so generously offered to do the conversion.

Ok, I just did a little bit of cleaning up of the DOC file. I converted the quotes and apostrophes to the curly type and fixed the double dash to proper emdash. Now to give it a load into Book Designer and see how it comes out. |

I have to say this did not really take all that long to convert. That said, The Heretic is posted now in BBeB and MobiPocket. I hope you'll all enjoy Jason's novel. It sounds very good from the review. This is one in my TO BE READ pile.
