Not that long of a drive, though, but the previous post was made in the middle of the trip, so I didn't get home until late last night. Then work today, so update comes now

Fellowship, though I do love Mistborn. But... it's Tolkien. 'Nuff said.

Douglas Adams Division

Foundation by Isaac Asimov vs Dragons of Autumn Twilight by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman

Watchmen by Alan Moore vs Dune by Frank Herbert

 

Reader and Raelynx by Sharon Shinn - excellent book versus one of my favorite books

Abstain, but at Asamov vs. Asamov.

Dragons of Autumn Twilight by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman - was not big on either, but I thought this was better (and this series I plan to continue . . . eventually).

Abstain

 

The Lord of Chaos by Robert Jordan

Foundation and Earth by Isaac Asimov

Dragons of Autumn Twilight by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman

Watchmen by Alan Moore

 

Both Foundations and Watchmen.

 

Nat, one of these days we'll get you to read Asimov, and understand his greatness

 

I read most of Foundation a few years ago. It was eh.

 

The Lord of Chaos by Robert Jordan

Foundation and Earth by Isaac Asimov

Dragons of Autumn Twilight by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman

Dune by Frank Herbert

 

Watchmen, abstain on the rest. Lord of Chaos is the beginning of the Boredom Saga of the Wheel of Time.

 

Sorry about the delay - lot of stuff going on here. I'll try to update tomorrow night.

 

I say that, then promptly run into computer problems at home. I haven't forgotten about this, I promise.

 

Abstain
Foundation
Foundation
Dune

 

sad smilies until I do forget? I don't think that'll work

 

Lord of Chaos
Foundation and Earth - the other is good, and I would give it a pity vote... but Foundation and Earth is one of my favorites.
Foundation
Dune - on reputation alone. I'm almost to reading it!
