EBOOK PAGE

Here is a complete-as-possible list of my works available in e-formats. I’ll be uploading new books and stories all the time, so if you can’t find something you want, check back in a few weeks or months and see if it’s become available.

I’m sorry that not every format is represented. I do not control the electronic rights to all my work— in some cases, publishers paid me good money for those rights, and if they choose to limit the formats in which my books are available, there’s nothing I can do about it. (You, however, have every right to complain to the publisher.)

For those books that I control and uploaded myself, I’ve tried at the very least to make them available for Kindle, Nook, iBooks, Kobo, and on Smashwords, the latter of which makes them available in a wide variety of formats, including the Sony Reader, .pdf, and HTML.

I’ve had a hard time finding my own works on iBooks. Just so you won’t have to go through the all the annoying fiddly procedures I do, here’s a link to everything I have on iBooks.

And here’s my link on Google.

(Actually I’d prefer if you downloaded from Smashwords rather than the iBook and Google stores, because I get a bigger cut of the proceeds. It’s the exact same file in any case. But whatever works for you, my friends.)

wjw April 20, 2016 at 8:17 pm: Thanks! It’s something I’ve considered.
Jan March 23, 2017 at 5:29 pm: i would very much pay more than a Dollar for a patreon, if CityOnFire/Metropolitan would ever get a sequel… *scrapes table with his bare hands in pure i-need-to-know desperation
Stellan L May 14, 2017 at 4:02 pm: I’d be prepared to pay a dollar per *chapter*. (Within reason. Wouldn’t want to make you go completely War and Peace on us…)
Adelord Laramee July 14, 2017 at 9:45 pm: Yes please, a conclusion to city on fire is very much desired.
Chris September 23, 2019 at 5:21 pm: I’ve read all the Praxis books, and I’ve just finished reading the Accidental War with Martinez and Sula reunited and ready to rock a war, so you had better be working on the next book Mister! }:o(
wjw September 23, 2019 at 10:25 pm: I’m trying to finish the book as we speak. I’m also trying to think of a title.
Stacy Garrett January 20, 2020 at 8:48 pm: I had just picked up the Tor Double of The Graveyard Heart and Elegy for Angels and Dogs at a used book store. I picked it up because I’ve read virtually everything of yours but had missed this one. I took the time to read Zelazny’s novella first to understand the setting and really enjoyed it. But I have to say how much I really liked you expansion of what he had established. And an interesting take separated by 25 years of each other. I definitely saw things in your novella that were echoed in other stories, particularly Aristoi, Millenium Party, and Praxis series. I came back here to see if I could add it to my ebook collection but can’t find it listed. And Amazon only has very expensive used book offerings. Is there a rights issue holding this up being released? I would love to have it in that format whenever it comes out. Meanwhile I’ll hold on to my cherished Tor double. Thanks for the great read.
john myles February 22, 2020 at 10:28 pm: just finished Knight Moves. wow. dug it. i think the last walterjonwilliams novel left for me to read. thanks.
wjw February 22, 2020 at 11:54 pm: Hang on, John! “Fleet Elements” comes out this fall!
Jack July 16, 2020 at 7:14 pm: “Voice of the Whirlwind” was recommended by an online friend, and I’m glad he did. What a great read, I loved it!
Mark October 18, 2020 at 11:13 pm: Just wrapped up Voice Of the Whirlwind (good stuff!), and am driven to say that Aristoi still blows me away!

Still need to get Metropolitan through the Shield and into orbit now that there’s plasm galore sloshing around. Many questions…
Adelord December 3, 2020 at 10:21 am: FYI, baen links above are broken, but the wjw books and bundles are still sold there.
Example:
https://www.baen.com/walter-williams-novel-bundle.html
JJ August 31, 2021 at 2:03 pm: I’ve just finished Fleet Elements and hoping against hope that you’re starting, in the middle of or finishing the next one!! Please, Please, Please, please……

Thank you so much for the other two and the prior series!
wjw August 31, 2021 at 4:54 pm: I’m pleased to say that I’m finishing the book now and it should be out in a year or so.
William England November 18, 2021 at 12:55 am: Just found and bought the Quillifer series. Looks brilliant! Thanks for putting them out there.

You aren’t on Twitter are you? Makes it a bit harder to amplify your work. Ah well…

Thank you again!
Will /wingland on Twitter
Erik Nielsen March 2, 2022 at 4:13 am: Just finished the latest Quillifer book, very enjoyable and looking forward to more of that. Thanks for keeping the Praxis series going as well. You have a voice that moves through genres (or sub-genres). I still have a hope that you’ll revisit the Maijstral books again someday, those my favorites along with DOA, which is how I discovered your work back in the early 80s. But, man, just keeping doing whatever turns you on, even if that’s not writing.
