Down With OPB – Unforgettable
Fellow Codex author Eric James Stone is currently serializing his novel Unforgettable online, adding one chapter a week, like I am (link goes to the first chapter). Unlike me, however, he has the entire thing available as an ebook if … Continue reading

Down With OPB – The False Princess
Continuing March’s look at Other People’s Books, I’d like to feature a change of pace for Hero Go Home. There’s really no connection at all, either thematically or even proximately, between Digger, or superheroes in general, and Eilis O’Neal’s debut … Continue reading
Big Game Wednesday – Champions Online

Down With OPB – The Hollow Earth
Ya down with OPB? Yeah, you know me. OPB means Other People’s Books, which means I’m talking about fiction other than my own. In theory, given what this site is about, that means I should be trying to track down … Continue reading
