October Reading Thread | Science Fiction & Fantasy forum
Oct 1, 2024. #1. I'm hoping this month to (finally!) finish off Tad William's Shadowmarch which has been hanging around since the spring.

I'm much less interested in new books, as most of what I want to read is out-of-print or only available online from the likes of Amazon. The 'Hard-to-Find' bookshop in Auckland has a whole SFF room/corridor:

Nov 23, 2002. Messages. 26,654. Location. UK. Aug 1, 2006. #9. Was about to read Le Guin's Earthsea series, but having problems getting into the general style.

2014年11月14日 · Sep 5, 2022. #1. Over the summer I opened a survey to gauge the responses to Chronscast, SFF Chronicles' official podcast (episode 9 out today!).

May you read a 1,000 books this month... - Science Fiction
2003年11月11日 · Anyways I'm a few chapters into my reread of the first book in this trilogy The Golden Age, the other books in the series are The Phoenix Exultant, and The Golden Transcendence. One of better Space Opera's I have read recently, and although I have never really been a fan of books with Hard Sci-fi Elements, Wright strikes a good balance.

Book Hauls Discussion: New or Second-Hand?
2007年4月1日 · Today I go into a new book store and the SF/fantasy section, if it exists at all, is crammed with a zillion copies of a few gigantic bestsellers, next to books ripping off the gigantic bestsellers (how many teenage vampire romances do we need?), a bunch of thick books with generic dragon covers or space battle covers, most of them in endless ...

Exploring Avebury: The Essential Guide by Steve Marshall, a incredibly detailed book about Avebury and its surroundings with wonderful photos and illustrations, and Templars: The Knights Who Made Britain by Steve Tibble, about the Knights Templar, of course, interesting but somewhat repetitive.
November 2022 Reading Thread - Science Fiction & Fantasy forum
2008年11月10日 · I've just finished a couple of Edward Leithen novels by John Buchan, The Dancing Floor and Sick Heart River. They're very different from the rather gung-ho Richard Hannay books, far more psychological and contemplative, both looking in different ways at atonement, faith and sacrifice, one...
