Tony, any chance of the publisher releasing digital downloads of the Casca series? Frequent travelers like me could load the entire library onto our iPads while our hard copy libraries sit at home.

Believe it or not the Casca series has been undergoing a long term process of turning it into ebooks. There have been various issues that the publisher has experienced and most of them have had something to do with converting the older books (1 to 24) into digital format. This process began Spring 2010. Since then there have been setbacks and on one occasion the entire process lost due to a computer crash.
He hopes in 2012 to bring at least some of the series to ebook format. Now, I’m not entirely sure what this format will be since things have changed over the 18 months this has been under review, so I’m as much in the dark as anyone.

Ebookeee has 1-22 in audiobooks and Nitro Downloads has 1-22 as a .rar file, whatever that is. Some bloggers have one or two available for download (I even found a txt file of “Liberator”, gods help me). Go to Dogpile.com and search the term “Casca e books”

Nitro Downloads is a scam, they charge you for membership before download is available but download doesn’t exist! see https://www.scambook.com/report/view/5596/Nitro-Downloads—Media-Feed-False-Advertising-for-4.95-on-07-19-2011 or google Nitro Downloads Scam for other reports.
As I was asked to give a price for digitising Casca books recently (it was too high so I am not actually doing it) I would guess that the digital copes of 1 – 22 probably doesn’t really exist.

Just want to express my desire to see ebooks as well. I would love to have them start with yours, Tony but looks like they are going in numerical order instead. But that is fine too, I’ll be picking some of them up either way. Kindle format too, hopefully.

I can see the plus side of that sort of thing, but if a cyber terrorist destroys the internet someday, I’ll still have powder, shot and my paper back collection.
