If you look at the Categories for posting you'll notice one called "Other Literature". You'll also see one called "Non Fiction". Right now, because the site is new, all books are to be discussed on this board (except, obviously, WoT, because there's clearly enough discussion for a separate board there). Perhaps in the future we'll have enough traffic and interest to warrant splitting those into another board called "Other Books" or something similar.

It is good to encourage involvement for those who enjoy a wider range of books than just SF/F.

Never fear, for I have PLANS.


It's probably best to stick with some SFF books for now, but you are in charge. Do what you think is best, and if that means vetoing the vote of the masses, well then, go ahead.


It's ok, poppet, it is a VERY GOOD plan. :)


Is the plan Harkaway-shaped?

How about Feist's Magician? Nebhead - 01/12/2009 08:32:16 AM 1373 Views
So you too want to ignore the "Other Fiction" idea? *NM* Tom - 01/12/2009 05:41:19 PM 628 Views
