I'd love to read some more by David Lindsay writer of The Voyage to Arcturus. I know we have The Haunted Woman on the site but there are other works of his out there Sphnix, The Devil's Tor I would be so curious to read. Can't even find them in DT format. Thanks again to all the uploaders for their work.

Unfortunately, only the Voyage to Arcturus and The Haunted Woman are freely available online. The former is at Project Gutenberg and the latter at Project Gutenberg Australia. Dr Drib has done Sony Reader versions of both.

I'm looking for an e-book copy of Once an eagle by Anton Meyers. If anyone could point me in the right direction it would be appreciated.

Remember I am new, and don't completely understand all the logistics involved here. I am realizing all the work you all do, and appreciate it...my question is this. I have found two Agatha Christie books out there. Are there any more available or are her books still under copyright? She is one of my favorite authors. How about Dashneil Hammett, or Mickey Spillane, or Raymond Chandler? To keep from asking dumb questions in the future, if I am interested in particular authors, how would I find out if their works are still under copyright? Thanks for your time.........Donna
