GREENSWORD: A Tale of Extreme Global Warming (Five Star 2009) ("Science fiction has always been a great vehicle for biting satire and social commentary -- from H.G. Wells' The Time Machine right on up to Donald Bingle's engrossing GREENSWORD.  Bingle is a terrific writer."  Hugo and Nebula Award Winner, Robert J. Sawyer)

 Now on Kindle. Video trailer on my YouTube Playlist.

Forced Conversion (Five Star 2004) ("Visceral, bloody -- and one hell of a page turner! Bingle tackles the philosophical issues surrounding uploaded consciousness in a fresh, exciting way.   This is the debut of a major novelist -- don't miss it."  Robert J. Sawyer, Hugo Award-winning author of Hominids)
