Earthsea Discussion
My apologies for how long it took me to get this up! We still have two weeks before we get to the next book ( Read more... ) -
Current Book List
This book list seems to be the current consensus. If anyone has an objection, speak up! :) Also, 'Discussion book for X' is actually read the month before, but it seemed obnoxious to call Earthsea the January book when we're in February. IE, we'll kick off I, Robot's discussion in early March, after reading it in February ( Read more... ) -
Also, February
I know that several of you haven't finished Earthsea yet (so no you're not alone) but figured I would go ahead and kick the February selection out there so I can order from Amazon. (Yes, it's all about me. ;)

Book Selection: February

Discussion Kick-Off: Mote
I know that it will be a shock and surprise to all of you, but I don't expect discussion to be very formal ( Read more... ) -
Trouble Getting Book
Sorry to those of you having trouble finding the book. I swear that I didn't /try/ to pick a difficult one...
I got my copy of The Mote in God's Eye from an Amazon order, if you're doing such for Christmas anyway. -
Thanks for joining! :)
Hooray. :) Let's try this thing.
So, The Mote in God's Eye by Niven and Pournelle for December. We want to go for picking the next month's book around mid-month and for discussions to kick up around the first of the month following ( Read more... ) -
Welcome!
I've never moderated a group before but we'll see how this goes. If at least four or five people join, we'll pick a book for December. I'm thinking possibly The Mote in God's Eye by Niven and Pournelle, since it's one of the geek cred books that I hadn't read yet but folks seemed to like. :)
