Worlds and settings without rights

[Simlasa]

I've been re-reading some old (late 1800s) fantasy lately... the stuff by George MacDonald... Lilith & Phantastes... has my brain going... cobbling together a relatively adult fairy-world out of those, and MacDonald's other, stories.
But then, I've been wanting to do a fairy-tale/folklore game for a long while now...

Tell us some more about it, I'm guessing it's some sort of fantasy earth, but what flavour is the setting? (silly question, I know...)

Captain Nemo and MArtian Invasions never go out of style.

One way to find out is to peruse the Project Gutenberg list.

It scans and makes e-books in vanilla text of works in the public domain. if it is in Gutenberg it is copyright free in the US.

it looks like much of Edgar Rice Burrough's stuff is there.
