 John Lars Shoberg

Our most prolific writer is getting some notice from readers! If you like science fiction, try one of his books. Most can be ordered through your local bookstore, or get them directly from MoonPhaze.com, where they are currently on sale.

John's latest book, The Stone Ship, is #2 in the Stone Builder series, but does a good job of standing on its own. Ask for it at your favorite bookstore, or get an e-copy from smashwords.com or amazon.com. It was published in May 2021.

In The Stone Ship, the military finds a destroyed spaceship made of stone in its exploration of a new stellar system. They call in the scientific team who first studied the abandoned Stone Builder cities left on a colony world (see Stone Builders #1). But as the scientists work, another ship is making its way towards them. Is it the Stone Builders, looking for their lost ship? Or worse, whatever race is capable of such destruction?

The Stone Builders is the first of the series. At this time, hard copies can only be obtained from MoonPhaze.com, and e-copies from smashwords.com.

In The Stone Builders, 3 children get lost in the jungle surrounding their colony town. When they are found, their rescuers realize they have found the outskirts of an underground city that nobody had known about. A team of scientists set up camp to study the find, where everything is made of stone. Meanwhile, the Wassarrans decided this should be a Wassarran-only colony and show up in force to make it so. But why did the Stone Builders leave? If the scientists can't figure it out, their own colonists might meet a similar fate.

Linda NMI Joy

Linda NMI Joy is the pen name used by Trudy V Myers when she writes romances.

Linda has a boxed set of 2 stories just released in July 2021. The boxed set of e-books is available from smashwords.com and Amazon.com. The boxed set is called Hank's Widow and has 'Boxed Set' in the top right corner of the cover. The Boxed Set is the same price as the book, Hank's Widow. If you get a copy of Hank's Widow and then want to read the pre-quel, "The Game" (a short story), "The Game" is available separately on smashwords.com for free. Ask for a hard copy of Hank's Widow from your favorite bookstore, or order from MoonPhaze.com, where it's on sale. The Boxed Set is not available as a hard copy.

Hank's Widow - She wanted a quiet place to pursue her writing career. He's loved her since he first saw her photo. Will her grief keep him from claiming her heart?

The Game - 4 cousins from a small town in Nebraska, who look more like brothers, have their relationship shattered during a game when the eldest is home for the holidays from the university. Will they ever speak to each other again?

Trudy V Myers

Alas, Trudy is not a prolific writer, for she also does the editing and publishing. But she does have some irons in the fire that she's working on, so keep watching this space in future MoonPhrazes for news on what she's working on.

MoonPhrazes November 2022

It's November already! Where does the time go? Did you finish reading your free book, The Stone Ship , by John Lars Shoberg? Don't forget, you can get a free copy of the series starter, The Stone Builders by going to www.smashwords.com. Search either for the title or the author's name, and it should come up. If you like John Lars Shoberg's work, you could try another of his titles, De-Evolution . It looked like the perfect planet to colonize, so the generational ship landed. A year later, 2 children go missing, and are apparently being lead away by a Jabberwocky, a local animal the colonists don't know much about. When the search team finally tracks them down, they find the jabberwockies are the equivalent of late stone age humans, but they once had a thriving civilization. Something is messing with evolution on this planet, and the humans must find what it is and how to deal with it before they also regress to cavemen. You can find De-Evolution at https://M...

MoonPhrazes - July 23, 2022

  At Long Last...   My 15-year-old CPU (computer) went on the fritz last weekend and spent the week in the shop. So even though the new MoonPhaze website went live on Monday or Tuesday, I could not make an announcement. That's one draw-back of having your computer remember all your passwords for you. I am announcing now that the new website is live. You can look it over at MoonPhazeBooks.com . You should be able to buy and download any of the 4 sf novels by John Lars Shoberg that I've got listed. This site sells only ebooks. Also, I have just re-published these same 4 books on Smashwords.com. On Smashwords, John's first book, The Stone Builders , can be downloaded for free. Yes, FREE ! That price may take as long as a week to work its way to your local bookstore, but it will get there. If you enjoy The Stone Builders, you will find it possible to download the sequel, The Stone Ship , for free by following the instructions in The Stone Builders. This is our way o...
