Under The Stairs Series - Ten True Fantasy™ Novels The Under the Stairs series is about the adventures of John Lyon, a young History Professor who discovers a hidden gateway (under the stairs of his old house) to a fantastic place he calls "Bandworld." Bandworld appears to be a planet that is firmly set in the Dark Ages: castles, kings, rigid social caste systems, primitive technology, etc. As John Lyon spends more time in Bandworld, he finds that his assessment of this "medieval" place is shockingly incomplete. Join John Lyon on fantastic adventures in this series of books that has been described by some readers as "It reminds me of Terry Brooks' Magic Kingdom of Landover series. . . but it's a lot better."

Z Detective Series - Ten Murder/Mystery Novels Meet Big Bob Zapolska, an unlicensed private eye who reads detective fiction for self improvement. Z's stubbornness, combined with other useful "skills" such as a keen sense of smell and a healthy disregard for legal "technicalities," helps land him in the middle of some interesting situations. Big Bob Zapolska may be a loner. He may be a loser. He may, in fact, be a dangerous pyromaniac. But if someone has cheated you --- if someone is crowding you --- it's good to have the Z-man on your side!       Of further help to him are his personal beliefs: Big and ugly are assets in the P.I. game. Tell the truth when possible -- it's hard to remember lies. An occasional rage-driven blackout can be helpful. Never break the law --- unless you have to. If you blackjack a man correctly, he will rarely suffer permanent brain damage. In the right hands [Z's], fire is an excellent motivator.

Miscellaneous Fiction and Non-Fiction Currently in this section you will find a quirky Vampire book: The Gentleman Vampire and a non-fiction "self-help" book designed to help individuals increase their creativity. Unleashing The Rights Side of the Brain is a team effort by Robert H. Williams, Ph.D. Psychologist and John G. Stockmyer.
