  The Thousand Days of Disbelief
Phantacea Publications is pleased to announce the three mini-novels constituting "The 1000 Days of Disbelief", Book Two of 'The Thrice-Cursed Godly Glories', are available for ordering online by credit card.

"Feeling Theocidal -- Thrygragon, Year of the Dome 4376" (Book One of 'The Thrice-Cursed Godly Glories' trilogy), "The War of the Apocalyptics" (the first full-length entry in the Launch 1980 story cycle), the three mini-novels making up "The 1000 Days of Disbelief" (Book Two of 'The Thrice-Cursed Godly Glories'), "Goddess Gambit" (Book Three of the trilogy and in some respects the second – unless it's the third – entry in the Launch 1980 story sequence) and "Nuclear Dragons" (the second, full-length entry in the Launch 1980 story sequence) should be available at neighbourhood bookstores and public libraries all over the world.
"Janna Fangfingers", the third and final mini-novel comprising 1000-Daze, rather cleverly doubles as a prequel to both Gambit and the Launch 1980 story cycle. In its turn, Endgame-Gambit picks up from where War-Pox leaves off. Part Three of "Nuclear Dragons" connects to both War-Pox and Gambit. Parts One, Two and Four of Nuke also nicely sets up "Helios on the Moon", the last scheduled sequence in the Launch 1980 story cycle.
E-versions of Feel Theo, Hellion, Contagion,Fangers, War-Pox and Gambit are available on the Kindle format exclusively from amazon.com, amazon.co.uk and some of amazon's other European and Asian affiliates.
Kindle e-books can be downloaded for I-Pads and I-Phones as well as a number of other devices. Many have text-to-voice capacity for the visually challenged.
Phantacea Publications e-books are also available in a variety of other formats. Please check your favourite online bookstore to download Phantacea Publications e-books to the device of your choice.

Or, if you prefer to order directly from the publisher, email or send your order(s) via surface mail. No matter where you live or what currency you prefer to use, I'll figure out a way to fill your order(s) myself.
Please add an additional 12% to cover Canadian and provincial taxes as well as Canada Post rates for shipping. At present Phantacea Publications can only accept certified cheques or money orders.
BookFinder.com lists both of the original versions of the mosaic novels: "Feeling Theocidal" and "The War of the Apocalyptics". Also listed therein are most of the other PHANTACEA Mythos print publications.
Another interesting option for the curious is Chegg, which has a rent-a-book program. Thus far its search engine shows no results for phantacea (any style or permutation thereof) but it does recognize Jim McPherson (a variety of them) and the titles of the novels.
As for the Whole Earth (other than the Hidden Continent of Sedon's Head, at least as far as I can say), this page contains a list of a few other websites where you can probably order the novels in a variety of currencies and with credit cards.

 The three mini-novels constituting "The 1000 Days of Disbelief", Book Two of 'The Thrice-Cursed Godly Glories', are available for ordering online.
Of course, all three mini-novels can be ordered directly from Phantacea Publications for the same price, albeit not by credit card. (Cheques and money orders only, please.)
For the time being, if you order directly from me I will absorb shipping costs and government taxes on all three mini-novels.
The same as the two thus-far-published, full-length mosaic novels featuring Jim McPherson's Phantacea Mythos, "Feeling Theocidal" and "The War of the Apocalyptics", 1000-Daze is set in large measure on the Hidden Continent of Sedon's Head.
Its ensemble cast traces, at the top of the food chain, Thrygragos Everyman and his firstborn Unities (the incomparable Harmony, Thunder & Lightning Lord Order and Uncle Abe Chaos) from the heights of their freewheeling prime to the depths of their inevitably catastrophic decline.
All three mini-novels contain book-specific character companions. In the 'Anheroic Fantasy Illustrated' tradition of the decades-gone phantacea comic books, augmented versions of these companions are online.
In its entirety 1000-Daze constitutes Book Two of 'The Thrice-Cursed Godly Glories'. A growing selection of lynx to out-takes from all three parts of the overall novel can be found here.

The Ten Second Synopsis for "Contagion Collectors"
Set in the Years of the Dome 5456 to 5476, Contagion is the second section of "The 1000 Days of Disbelief", Book Two of 'The Thrice-Cursed Godly Glories'.
It details extraordinary efforts made by inveterate enemies of devazurkind to eradicate devil-worship beneath the Sedon Sphere -- by wiping out everyone who lives on the Hidden Headworld.
Three Outer Earthlings you may have heard of play howsoever insignificant roles in Contagion. They are Twisted Tommy (Tomas de Torquemada, age 56), Bosco (Hieronymous Bosch, age 26), and Dire (Albrecht Durer, age 4).
Dire and Drang (a hound, not yet a dachshund) are having a wonderful boy/dog adventure until four already much feared riders on psychopomp-steeds burst into their hence no longer exclusive paradise, the Garden of Earthy Delights.
As for the god by then sitting high above them all, in a Brainrock throne on a mushroom cloud, he's the deviant half-son of two of the terrifying riders, the one with the buzzsaw-scales and the one with the bow and already notched arrow.

The Ten Second Synopsis for "Janna Fangfingers"
Set in the Years of the Dome 5476 to 5495 – but narrated in 5980 YD – Fangers is the third and final mini-novel comprising "The 1000 Days of Disbelief", Book Two of 'The Thrice-Cursed Godly Glories' trilogy.
As told by the Legendarian, Jordan 'Q for Quill' Tethys, the day before the scheduled launching of the Cosmic Express from the Outer Earth's Centauri Island, it details the truly horrifying consequences of the thereafter demonized Trigregos Titaness playing a Trigregos Gambit.
Wittingly or unwittingly, she sets in motion circumstances that so imperil the Hidden Continent of Sedon's Head the Genesea could finally overwhelm it — nearly 5,500 years belatedly.
Her actions, and those of her husband and their terrible twins, dauntless deviants the three of them, result in not just the 1000 Days of Disbelief themselves but in All-Death Day itself. In many respects because of them, more Dead Things are marching against the Living than there are beings breathing, let alone fighting back.
It being his Age, resolving such a cataclysmic turn of events should properly fall to Thrygragos Everyman and his three Unities (the incomparable Harmony, Thunder and Lightning Lord Order and Uncle Abe Chaos).
After all, they eventually sorted threats to the Inner Earth as posed by the Death's Head Hellion and, much later on, contagion collectors subordinate to Quoits Tethys (the Titaness's Granny Jordy) and her lieutenants, Tomcat Tattletail and Herta Heartthrob, among others.
Maybe they would have, too. Except, what's left of them after Harmony's Feast Day, 5492, are driving the debacle.
And Janna Fangfingers is riding the wave of her mother's making both then, in the Dome's 55th Century, and now, in its 60th.

Goodreads reviews of 
In 4825 Year of the Dome, forces loyal to the Death Gods
of Frozen Lathakra threaten to overwhelm the Utopian
Weirdom of Cabalarkon. Its demonically-empowered
Master counterattacks mercilessly.
Yet, right here on the earth beneath their feet, there is no bigger secret than that there is a Cathonic Dome. The
second biggest secret beyond the Cathonic Dome is that
a continent the size of Africa lies underneath it.
