This website is largely a mirror of a small fraction of the content available on my gemini capsule (for more information on gemini, see: geminiprotocol.net). It is mostly here to give access to our gpubs from a web frontend. For more information on the gpub format on the web (including the specification, links to software, etc.), please visit gpub.colorfield.space.
These books are not auto-converted by software. Care is taken to make sure consistent markup is used and the best options within the gemtext format are used to display the book content.
To read these books, you will need a gpub reader. Peregrin, a browser-based reader is available for free. It can be installed on mobile and used offline on desktop or mobile.
HTML tables can get unwieldy with lots of long text, so I have not included descriptions of the books. Instead, I recommend that you browse for something that sounds vaguely interesting and then open the link(s) in the wiki column for more information on a specific title.
