Our third thread is up and the poll ready for your votes. What shall we read this month? https://www.the-sietch.com/index.php?threads/book-club-thread-3-what-shall-we-read.9625/

Okay, new vote is going up tomorrow. I want to finish off with a last thought, having ruminated on this for a while. Originally I commented that the story would be stronger if Benny was taken out in act 1 and Vaena actually wound up going up against the Night Elf as the final boss. I want to...

Thank you, corrected.

Alright, by my reckoning we have: Berserker by Fred Saberhagen For Love of Mother Not by Alan Dean Foster Grunts by Mary Gentle Illusion by Paula Volsky The Rediscovery of Man(SF Masterworks edition) by Cordwainer Smith Witch World by Andre Norton If I accidentally missed your nomination, let...

Nice, it's been a couple decades since I last read a Pip and Flinx book. Great start to the series though I think Foster kinda lost the plot towards the end of the series.

You don't need to be able to read to nominate something, you just have to write your entry.

Yes, I plan to renominate Berserker again. It only lost last month because I threw my own-vote at Illusion instead as promised, and didn't want a tie.

We start nominations today, and I'll throw up a new thread with a poll on the 1st.

We've gotten off to a bit of a rocky start and I'm of the opinion it was a mistake to go for recently written books instead of things that have held up a few years and shown some legs. I intend to nominate a few oldies for a while and see if that gets better results. In general, I agree with...

Naw, we've already asked people about reading more books each month and the group wasn't on board with that. Anyway I'm in several other book clubs and my next one will start this week, I can't really commit to too many books a month here. One reason I wanted to bump ours up to start the first...

Alright, finished it last night.

Nearly finished, standing at 78% today.

Alright, at 38% now.

Well dang. That was a fast read even by my standards.

That's a good idea, I'll do the same.

Sure, I'll take a look, thanks.

How fortuitous that you have two votes... Honestly I'd go for it if I could find a copy, but all six libraries* I have cards to lack it (The nearest one with that book is about sixty miles away) and since it was never put in any electronic formats, I'd have to find a hard copy and order it and...

Huh, I'd thought I'd headed that issue off by giving everybody two votes so they could vote for their own and a runner-up in hopes one would come out on top. More members will come in time, we're only on our second book.
