    If you'd like to support what I'm doing, you can pay what you want for a copy of the book here: https://librecron.com/product/undine-by-friedrich-de-la-motte-fouque/ (even nothing, if you just want to read it). The books are also available on Apple Books as DRM free downloads, so you can move them to whatever device you'd like.
