Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror Forums

Hey shanaqui, I've moved Here Abide Monsters to the top of my list so look for that in the next few days.

Those are on our list now.  Don't be too surprised at what we're missing.  We built the site around the awards to begin with so we're skewed towards the male authors quite heavily.  The WoGF is part of our effort to correct the imballance.  We're getting better with all these recomendations but it just takes time.  Thanks!

Done and done.  I just added The Killing Moon and The Shadowed Sun a few days ago so we now have all her books.  Enjoy!

Thanks!  I'm glad you found your way to WWEnd.  See comment above about surprises   We have God Stalk and Dark of the Moon on the do list.  Both are noms for the Mythopoetic Award which is one of our top priorities since it will help us with WoGF authors a great deal.  See the conversation about the Mytho here.

I've got the Vampire Files on the to do list now, thanks.  12 volumes!

Welcome to WWEnd and the WoGF!  I've not heard of Jane Gaskell before so thanks for the suggestion.  I've got the Atlan Saga, Strange Evil and King's Daughter on the to do list now.

Thanks everyone for the author and book suggestions.  We'll get another batch added as soon as we can.

Hello all.  I'm going to try and catch up a little on this thread.  If you scroll up to my last post on the 2nd you'll be at the last point that I felt worth a damn.  I had a gnarly cold that put me down the last few weeks but I'm starting to feel human again and will hopefully make some headway on this to do list soon.

dihenydd - 2013-02-04 5:26 PM I am thinking of reading the following for the challenge if it can be added to the DB please Susan Beth Pfeffer - The Last Survivors - Life As We Knew It

I've got Pfeffer's Last Survivors series on the list now, thanks.  And welcome to WWEnd!

The Uninvited is on the list now, Graham, and boy does it sound creapy as all hell!  I'm looking forward to your review.

A seven-year-old girl puts a nail-gun to her grandmother''s neck and fires. An isolated incident, say the experts. The experts are wrong. Across the world, children are killing their families. Is violence contagious? Hesketh Lock is tasked with finding out. Part psychological thriller, part dystopian nightmare, The Uninvited is a powerful and viscerally unsettling portrait of apocalypse in embryo.

No problem, Carl. We're on it.

Collections and anthologies are something that I'm rather eager to get to but right now we have our hands full just dealing with novels.  Still several awards we want to get in first before we branch out of the novel categories.  We do put in lots of collections and anthos, especially if requested, but there's much to be done before we can shift our focus for the awards and lists.

Thanks for the request and welcome to WWEnd, Carmilla!

booksihgal, justifiedsinner and JamesVirgil:  Tiptree is on the shortlist of awards especially since it will also support the WoGF - much like the Mythopoetic Award that we're working towards now.  We'll have to find a way to deal with the short stories in the list but I'm sure we can come up with a solution when the time comes.

dihenydd - 2013-02-13 4:58 PM Thanks for the welcome hope you are feeling much better soon. I have a review ready to post for this novel but still can't find the author in the DB. I have tried the search facility and just browsed the list of women authors. No luck though - am I overlooking something?

Oh, I should have been more clear!  I've got Pfeffer's Last Survivors series on my lengthy to do list.  She has not yet been added to the site.  I'm feeling much better, thanks, so I hope to post a batch of new authors/books this weekend and Pfeffer should be in that group since you've got your review ready.

Heh!  Wherever I can!  I've ended up giving up about 2/3 of my reading time to work on the site but I've dropped some other hobbies to compensate for it a bit and I tend to gravitate towards shorter books now so I can dip into more authors.  But you know, the next best thing to reading books is talking about them and there are other benefits gained in the trade off like all the great people from around the world I've met through WWEnd.  It's a lot of work but I'm still having fun!
