MoonPhrazes - December 2021

'Tis the season! Of gathering excitement as those wonderful winter holidays draw ever closer and closer. Unfortunately, it's also the season of being time crunched as you find time for shopping and baking and all those magical things the holidays call for.

We at MoonPhaze are as time-crunched as everybody else, and sometimes, it - alas - shows up in what we accomplish. As in, our monthly newsletter is a few days late and sometimes our year-end goals don't get reached before the end of the year.

John Lars Shoberg - The cover for John's latest book, "And the Meek Shall Inherit..." apparently needs a little more than a tweak, so we have had to postpone its publication to December 31, 2021. We are hoping to get everything done so that it can still count towards this year's goals. And we are still accepting pre-orders at MoonPhaze.com. For only $12, you can get on the list to receive an autographed first edition of Shoberg's latest book! And for pre-orders, the shipping is included!

============

The Lankmerans were a peaceful folk; they've never had any war in their history.

But shortly after humans arrive, another alien race does too, and their intentions appear to be to annihilate!

Who are they? Where did they come from? How did they get there without any spaceships? And why are they so intent on killing all intelligent life?

If the humans don't find answers, their efforts to protect the Lankmerans may not work. And Earth may be the next target of these technologically advanced barbarians.

============

Linda NMI Joy - We are also trying to get Linda's first book, "The Secret in Morris Valley" published again, under our own brand. It is next in line, but whether we get it finalized and on the market during December remains to be seen. If we can get both this and "Meek" out before the end of the year, it will mean we've met our goals for the year. Stay tuned for further news!

============

Ondrea was sent to Morris Valley to study the 'unusual' wolves rumored to live there. But her host seems determined to keep her from doing any field work.

He has plans for Ondrea.

So do the wolves.

============

We hope you have Happy Holidays, whichever ones you celebrate!

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...
