I've just added the newly-released "The Stoneware Money" by R. Austin Freeman to my previously-issued "Dr. Thorndyke Omnibus Vol 5". Note that Jon has released both this and "The Penrose Mystery" as separate books for those for prefer that.
Apologies Jon - I'm in no way intending to put down your excellent work by doing this; I just like everything collected together neat and tidy in my omnibus editions . |

So if I send you all the Star Trek books, can you do an Omnibus for that? LOL! I'd love to see the size of it.

First, I want to say thanks to all who are have uploaded books. I've had my Reader for three weeks and have already read four books from this forum.
I've read Harry's tutorial and want to try my hand at ebook creation. Does anyone have The Well at the World's End by William Morris in the works? If not, I'll do it and post it here. Ben |

PG Australia have just released a new "Dr. Thorndyke" novel, by R. Austin Freeman - "The Cat's Eye", originally published in 1923. I've added this new release to my Dr. Thorndyke Omnibus Vol 5.
This now concludes Vol 5, other than error corrections. The next "Dr. Thorndyke" book released (and there are still a fair number to go) will start a new "Vol 6". |

By popular request I have rearranged all the "Dr Thorndyke" detective novels and short stories of R. Austin Freeman into 7 volumes, arranged in order of publication date. These are all available for download here. I have deleted the previous volumes in which things were arranged somewhat haphazardly.

Just found the most wonderful, illustrated, 19th century "Manual of Surgery". Full of the most gruesome pictures. Should be a winner on the Reader!

I love this book and plan to do it.
What am I talking about?
Well, I'm talking about "Melmoth The Wanderer," by Charles Robert Maturin, an incredible Gothic tale that mesmerized me and had me spellbound when I first studied it in a graduate course on the Gothic in Literature course a few years ago. Don |

I've just realised, to my surprise, that nobody's posted any P.G.Wodehouse so far - one of the greatest humourists in the English language (IMHO). I've corrected this shocking oversight by posting "Right Ho, Jeeves", and shall post more in the near future.

I am actually working on a Star Trek book. Yes, you hear right, a Star Trek book. Didn;t think there were any that could be posted here. Well, guess again. This one is ok to post. If you know of the book Probe by Margaret Wander Bonnano then you'll get a real treat. This is what Probe should have been. The author has put it out there for all to read. And yes it is ok to post here.
