FANTASY/SCI-FI & SPECULATIVE FICTION
The Home of Merkim’s Promise Novels and Novellas.
A Book Takes You Anywhere You Want To Go . . . in a heartbeat
“You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me.” – C.S. Lewis
“The man who does not read good books is no better than the man who can’t.” – Mark Twain
Welcome to my web page. On this site you will find all the latest Merkim’s Promise novels and novellas, along with other of my fantasy and science fictions books and anthologies. As for what this site is about, I would say it is devoted to those readers whose imagination runs the gamut from thinking about what it would be like to meet a faerie to wondering how a sentient robot might choose to live or die. So, if your musings drift from the magical to the very edge of what might be—and maybe a bit beyond—then you’ve landed in the right place. Sit back, relax, and check out the niches I have just for you.
