Cindy The final phase of voting is here!

Thank you to everyone that participated in the first round of voting! To all the great goodreads authors, thank you for your participation without you we wouldn't be having goodreads author month.

With that said. The winner of this poll decides the October book. To prevent any problems and just to make sure it's clear: Cheating will not be tolerated. I don't see that being a problem but you never know!

All the authors except for 1 have been confirmed for a discussion of the book. The one with the * by it may have limited availability. The * is located at the end of the name of the book and author. As always please check with your favorite provider to see if the book you are voting for is available as availability does change daily.

Have fun and happy reading!

Robert I put mine in for Shadow's Son. Looks like an interesting read.


message 3: by Donna (new)

Donna Just picked up a copy of Shadow's Son at Dragon*con, so it would be fun to talk about it with the group.


message 4: by Ala (last edited Sep 06, 2010 05:33pm) (new)

Ala Voted for Shadow's Son, though they all look interesting and may end up on my to-read list at some point anyway.


message 5: by M.R. (new)

M.R. Mathias I voted for Shadow Son because on amazon it says that people who bought my book bought his. (I started it yesterday) M.R. Mathias

But The Second Coming is an awsome book too.


message 6: by Jon (new)

Jon Sprunk Thanks for all the support. Just a note, I see my entry has an asterick. I will be available if chosen.

*wave to Donna* It was a blast, wasn't it?


message 7: by Lee (new)

Lee Voted for Shadow Son.


message 8: by Alvin (last edited Sep 06, 2010 08:53pm) (new)

Alvin At Dragon*Con, I heard about Shadow's Son at Pyr's presentation, and the premise sounded intriguing. Also had the fortunate chance to bump into the author's father at the event - very engaging fellow!

At any rate, I had decided to read Shadow's Son even before my vote here.


message 9: by Cindy (last edited Sep 07, 2010 07:37pm) (new)

Cindy Jon the * you see in front of Shadow's Son shows which book you voted for ;).

I voted for Shadow's Son because it's one of my fav books of 2010 and really really enjoyed it!

Also I just noticed another book group I"m a part of is reading Emma Bull's War for the Oaks for October :)


message 10: by Barry (new)

Barry I voted for Shadow's Son. A book about assassins and 250 pages or so seems right up my alley!


message 11: by Barbara Friend (new)

Barbara Friend Ish War for the Oaks blew me away when I read it years ago. I'd love to revisit it in a group setting...and hear from the author!

Then why do I see * for two books?


message 13: by David (new)

David Burton I have to say that I've received more votes than I expected so far - thank you!! I'm flattered to be considered among such a wonderful list of authors.


message 14: by Ala (new)

Ala As the first post indicates, the books with the * by them may have limited availability. Meaning the books themselves may be hard to come by, not the Authors ;)


message 15: by Cindy (new)

Cindy The * at the end and before you vote indicates the book may be limited availability. After you vote an * appears before your vote so you know it. If you change your vote it will change :). I didn't realize that was how it singled who you voted for or I would have used a different symbol!

War for Oaks has been nominated several times for other categories. It was only a matter of time :)


message 16: by Cindy (new)

Cindy Ohhh this is a close one!


message 17: by Cindy (new)

Cindy That was a close vote. I have emailed Emma Bull and yet to hear back. I will try again and see if she will join us for at least a Q & A or something.

Thank you to all who voted!


message 18: by David (new)

David Burton Congrats to Emma and thanks for including me in the poll!! Much appreciated!!

Snail in Danger (Sid) Nicolaides If you're still drawing a blank via e-mail, Emma Bull has a LiveJournal account, coffeeem. I can drop her a line there if you don't have an account yourself.
