Cryptomundo
for Bigfoot, Lake Monsters, Sea Serpents and More

You know if you want autographed copies of my books, you can email me at [email protected] and I’ll tell you what I have on hand (such as the 2007 edition of Mysterious America or the few hardbounds left).

But Bob Girard is always a good source of older titles. Here’s a list he’s just sent out. Contact him directly, and let him know that Loren sent you his way….

Enjoy.
