Welcome to The Official Website of Author and Illustrator Jonah Lissner. I am first and foremost an adventure fiction
writer, meaning I enjoy writing adventure prose in scifi, fantasy, historical, detective, jungle thriller, horror, western,
well...you get the idea. I always enjoyed writing, and I decided to continue it as a hobby.
I am the Publisher, Editor-in-Chief
and Contributor (Writer) for my electronic magazine, ADVENTURE.
Check out the Premiere Issue of ADVENTURE MAGAZINE at only USD 5.00 for 66 pages of red-blooded tales of pulp adventure fiction. This is top-quality writing by the
new generation of adventure fiction writers, in the footsteps of RE Howard, Joseph Conrad, Jules Verne, Ernest Hemingway,
Dashiell Hammett, etc. Buy your issue today as secured .pdf.
By 'illustrator' that means yes, I have drawn decent sketches (pen-and-ink mainly) in the past (which
are not the barbarian sketches you see here, and also on the Viro Saga site, sketched by Eric Oakland, hats off to him!),
and a map or two for my Viro Saga project. I've also learned through trial-and-error the rudiments of website design.
Read an interview here about my research into THE VIRO SAGA.
I am the author of several self-published ebooks, including: PULP ADVENTURE, THE VIRO SAGA TRILOGY:
VIRO OF KSHATRIYA (BOOK ONE OF THE VIRO SAGA), TALES OF EURODAE (BOOK TWO OF THE VIRO SAGA), VIRO AND THE PRIESTHOOD OF THE
HAWK (BOOK THREE OF THE VIRO SAGA). I am also author of the non-fiction titles APOCALYPSE: THE NEW WORLD RPG (pen-and-paper
RPG) and THE MARINERS OF ELYSIUM, a historical, archaeological and anthropological survey on the proto-Berbers and their cultural descendants in the
Canary Islands, ancient Lybia and Egypt.
