That Moment…

Dear Amazing People,

Have you ever experienced that moment, when you see your own creation accessible for everyone to enjoy?

For me that moment happened when I saw my book “The Monster: Blade of Darkness” shining on a stand in the Science Fiction section of the University of Oslo Science Library in Oslo, Norway.

The book has been recently donated to the Library as a contribution to its rich SciFi collection.

So now, if you are around Oslo, you can come to the Science Library at the Blindern Campus of the University of Oslo, borrow the book “The Monster: Blade of Darkness”, and enjoy reading it for free.

With great respect and gratitude,

Alexander

“The Monster” in the World of Books

Dear Amazing People,

If you have been following updates on this website, you already know that my novel “The Monster: Blade of Darkness” is now all over Amazon: you can find it on the international website, its British version, the German one and so on. But besides Amazon, the book became also available on many other book selling platforms: Barnes&Noble, Foyles, SAXO, HotBookSale and many other. And now I have also listed the Russian version of the novel “The Monster: Blade of Darkness” on Lulu.

Lulu is an interesting initiative. It represents a self-publishing platform for authors to easily publish their books and bring them to the global market. The platform works based on the “print-on-demand” principle, where a book is published only when a reader orders it at www.lulu.com. This is quite a nice way to use natural resources for book-printing efficiently.

So, I have put up the paperback and e-book versions of “The Monster: Blade of Darkness” on Lulu, where you can now preview and purchase them. I have also decided to share my previous book, “The Thoughts: the World of My Heart and Soul. The Favorites”, on this platform as well. It is also available there in paperback and e-book formats. And overall you can find all my books available at Lulu on my author’s page there.

However, I do not just sell my books. They are also accessible to read for free at certain places, such as public libraries. For instance, you can now find both the Russian version of the novel “The Monster: Blade of Darkness” and the book “The Thoughts: the World of My Heart and Soul. The Favorites” at the ARTICO street library in Chisinau, Moldova. So, you can go there and get the taste of my writing for free.

All in all, my novel “The Monster: Blade of Darkness” slowly but steadily enters the global world of books. Soon it is going to be available for reading on many more book selling and sharing platforms all over the globe. And I am sure that one day I will reach your hands and mind.

With great respect and gratitude,

Alexander
