Mike I wanted to share this with you so you or your publisher could take the appropriate action.

I just finished Inferno (Awesome BTW) and read your note to the readers at the end. As i tried to locate more info online about the crowdfunding effort, I came across a Reddit where people were sharing your work via Google Drive. As this hurts the translation effort financially, i wanted to provide you with the link so you could have it shut down.

Thanks for your work.

Regards,

Mike

Just found another:

There's many more unfortunately.

Mike Just finished PTL3! Awesome man. You continue to do great things. I'm about to rip through the net looking for information regarding the next book (I.e. Is it written? Does it just need to be translated? Etc.) then I'll probably start searching for online Russian language learning resources so that I am able to just jump right in without any agonizing wait. If only I were that smart.

Seriously, I constantly share your work with others and I sincerely hope I play a small role in the rapid and considerable growth of you reader and fan base. You deserve to be read on a huge scale. Thanks for your work!
