Walker Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 Hey guys,Found this useful free book resource on the internet, if i've proven too stupid to do the link just look up Project Gutenburg on a search engine its got thousands of well known books and texts by people that are long dead and buried so there's no copyright issues, least not in my country.,, web page Brainwaves, Asia Ascendent and now this, my it's been a profitable day for free books.

Anomie Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 Where did you find Asia Ascendent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meridian Posted February 13, 2003 Share Posted February 13, 2003 Not sure if you are asking where it is or how he heard about it.Bruce Baugh first announced that he was putting the book on the web in the official WW formums. He & the other writers had finished the book, but after the decision not to print anymore Aeon univers books by WW he decided to put the book in our hands on the web.As for where it is. The link is in the first message in the thread. Just click where it reads "web page". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anomie Posted February 13, 2003 Share Posted February 13, 2003 But how do I find it there? I tried to search for it using Asia Ascendent but got back zero results, am I using the wrong search string or am I using Gutenbergs search engine wrong?

Walker Posted February 13, 2003 Author Share Posted February 13, 2003 Yeah, I managed to do the link but not to name it properly ... DOH!! (slaps forehead)Anomie, the Guttenburg stuff, is just loads of OLD books, like pre 20th C stuff that is out of copyright. Not a lot to do with roleplaying and aberrant you might think but I put it up here cos it MIGHT be useful for Story tellers. If nothing else your Mega Mental characters need never be stuck for an witty sounding quote again The Brainwaves and AsAs stuff is seperate, that stuff is still intellectual property of the authors, cos they ain't been dead for ages. Sorry for any confusion this may have inadvertantly caused.The whole thread came about cos Widget suggested I might be able to find a copy of a famous work by a long dead author free on the net. I said that if I did I would post a link up. What I found was a website with thousands of free famous books by long dead authors, so I posted that up instead.Maybe I would have put it up in a different area of the discussion heading if I'd stopped to think for more than a few seconds, however stopping to think for a few seconds is generally foreign to my nature so here it is.
