Return to Barsoom
A new adventure of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ John Carter of Mars
It has been over 60 years since we last heard from John Carter, the Warlord of Mars. We now know that Mars is cold, dusty and with an atmosphere so thin water will not liquify. Life as we know it cannot exist on Mars.
So why is Chester Ventura getting in a rocket and plotting a course?
A Princess of Mars
The classic novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs
Drawing upon the design of the first printing by A.C. McClurg & Co. in 1917, Burroughs’ first Mars story (the basis for Disney’s John Carter movie), is handsomely illustrated by Frank E. Schoonover.
New to ebooks?
ePUBs can be read on iBooks, Sony Reader, Nook, Kobo and other devices.
You can also read ePUBs on Mac, Windows and other systems. I recommend Adobe Digital Editions and the Sony Reader app. Both are good for basic ePUBs and are free to download.
For Mac only, Bookle is an inexpensive program that brings much of the iBooks reading experience to OS X.
On Android, the modestly-priced Mantano Reader Premium is very good.
MOBI and KF8 are exclusive to Kindle, and the free Kindle Reader app is available for many platforms.
The Man in the High Castle
Putnam version
Taking the classic novel by Philip K. Dick and giving it a considered ebook treatment.
Freed from a print run, it is possible to create a number of different ebook editions through an investment in design. In this case, two cover versions, one an adaptation of the original first hardcover edition from Putnam, and the other is one of my own creation.
These excerpt files contain front-of-book material and the first two chapters to show the design concepts.
Assignment : Earth
Adapted from the script by Art Wallace & Gene Roddenberry

Earth is in chaos.
Leaders are assassinated.
There is violence in the streets.
Wars threaten to consume nation after nation.
And the U.S. is about to put nuclear missiles in orbit.
When the agents of Aegea assigned to sabotage the weapons of mass destruction go missing, Supervisor 194 – codename: Gary Seven – is forced to return to Earth and complete their mission.
But there are others watching Seven and his feline companion Isis, and they do not trust this mysterious operative.
Mr. Seven is about to have a very bad day.
