Voting opens at midnight on the Ides of March. You must be a member of the group to vote. I will close membership temporarily before I go to bed on the eve of March 15th (rough time-frame: between 8-9 p.m. Central on March 14, 2013).

If any more series are seconded this week (between March 10th and March 15th), I will update this poll to include them.

This poll will remain open for one week and the final run-off poll will begin immediately following the conclusion of this poll.

Thank you for all the great suggestions.

I was trying to save you the stress. But we can play it by ear. Or open up another nomination thread for the alternate series. Whatever you want to do is cool with me.

Is it too early to start an "Anti-Goodkind Alliance" for the second round of voting?

Please, gods above, don't make me read the Sword of Truth again. I love the first many books, but the last three just absoultely kill be.

Way too many good choices. I voted for the series I nominated but I would not be disappointed if any of a half dozen of those choices won.

Hopefully BOTNS can emerge as the candidate for the united 'short and interesting' party, against the behemoths...

Darn, the one series I've already read is leading (though only by one vote!), and as much as I enjoyed it the first time, reading something again vs. reading something new, I always choose something new because there's just so much out there I want to read. Look forward to seeing the outcome of this *and* the alternate series! Very exciting.

Will be interesting to see how Amber fares in a runoff.

I also voted for Rai-Kirah, really looking forward to reading that series, fingers crossed maybe it will be the alternate??
