Some of you know that my DH, Rick is a writer. He has several books in
print, of the "science fantasy" persuasion. 5 of these are in a series
commonly called "the Wiz books". Back in 2000 he was working on the 6th
of these books, the publisher was anxiously awaiting it (as were many
fans) when Rick ended up having a quintuple bypass surgery, very
suddenly. Since then he has had problems writing fiction.
And the novel to be is now a "historical" novel, and still not quite
finished.
However.....
Rick is putting what he has on line for those that want to read it.
There is an apology/explanation from him too. First chapter is up,

Not great for a site, but it is there.
Enjoy,
Pati, in Phx

Thanks, Pati!
I love the Wiz books. I need to get them out and read them all over again.
Think I'll do that before I read book 6. And, tell Rick that "Mall Purchase
Night" is still one of my favorites. It's been awhile since I've read it,
too.

Tell him thanks! I've read 2 of his earlier ones and enjoyed them very
much. This is now bookmarked for later. (Got DD2 visiting, no time
ATM.)

I sent DH to the site, Pati, as he is a sci-fi and fantasy person. He
said he would probably start at the beginning of the series! So that's
good >g<
