To Light a Candle - An Unofficial Earthsea Companion
|
 |
This eBook, which I recently compiled, is a companion volume to Ursula K. LeGuin's Earthsea books, a fantasy series along the lines of Tolkein's Middle Earth (though more spiritually interesting, I think).
This volume contains original artwork from many talented Earthsea fans/artists, and contains an A-Z detailed description of the names, places, and events of Earthsea.
If you would like a copy, email me.

Domino 4.5 Unleashed (Published Book, 1997)
Collaborative Web Programming Using Lotus Domino Server
|
 |
This was my first published book. It describes how to use the Lotus Domino platform
for building dynamic internet and intranet applications. While it's a bit dated now, those intereseted in how Lotus Notes worked and how IBM/Lotus
tried to "transform" it from a client/server into an internet platform might still find it interesting.
