Because it wasn't as enjoyable as the 50 I did list? Larry Send a noteboard - 06/12/2009 09:11:05 PM
why isn't The Gone-Away World on that list?
tch, tch.


Mary Doria Russell's A Thread of Grace and Walter Moers' books were closer to being on that list than Harkaway's. While I liked that book, quite a few people would find it rather annoying to read, ya know ;)

Oh, and since I urged a few in another thread to read more standalones, here's a list of them - 06/12/2009 06:53:21 AM 874 Views
You didn't mention Perdido Street Station. I'm shocked! *NM* - 06/12/2009 07:21:05 AM 170 Views
I thought The Scar was a better story - 06/12/2009 07:40:38 AM 431 Views
I find that surprising. - 06/12/2009 08:58:41 AM 430 Views
Really? It's a very widespread opinion. - 06/12/2009 04:28:56 PM 441 Views
Exactly. *NM* - 06/12/2009 06:20:40 PM 175 Views
It's a stronger story - 06/12/2009 09:13:40 PM 413 Views
The Scar is weaker. - 06/12/2009 11:24:47 PM 372 Views
Perhaps. - 06/12/2009 11:38:20 PM 387 Views
Standalones sounds good *bookmarks* *NM* - 06/12/2009 11:59:12 AM 184 Views
I am disappointed - 06/12/2009 01:34:15 PM 412 Views

I wouldn't hesitate to rate it above The Scar for example. - 06/12/2009 09:13:23 PM 353 Views
And I wouldn't - 06/12/2009 09:15:14 PM 394 Views

Wow! Thanks. Part of my biggest problem in trying out new fiction is that... - 06/12/2009 08:46:29 PM 382 Views
You're welcome - 06/12/2009 09:12:12 PM 370 Views
Exactly *NM* - 08/12/2009 08:47:39 AM 170 Views
yikes... only read 3 of them... *NM* - 07/12/2009 07:52:15 AM 175 Views
All of four, though a few of those are wish-list/ haven't read. *NM* - 07/12/2009 08:07:28 PM 162 Views
