Thanks. There's so much going on it's hard to keep track of it all.

Haha I know, I don't even try and keep up anymore but that one had stuck in my head because I remember being suprised that it existed. I thought Children of Time was a standalone. I haven't had chanxe to read it yet but its high up on the TBR.

@Charlie and Sir Anni: Okay, I'll ask for a thread. I'm looking forward to it.
I might join for Eragon and The Warded Man and the rest of these series depending on the other planned BR's.

I haven't read Children of Time yet either, but very interested.
@jeffery I got children of time earlier this year but never had the chance to read it I was able to read guns of the dawn by Tchaikovsky which was good so I’d be up for it

How about a April 8 start date? That would be 6 weeks before the Children of Ruin read.

What Anni said :-)
Would anyone be interested in reading Juliet E McKenna's Tales of Einarinn starting with The Thief's Gamble next year?
Anyone interested in reading Marvel comics? I have Marvel Unlimited and constantly forget that I do and so looking for a reason to keep active in using it.

I don't have Marvel Unlimited but I love reading comics. How should we be doing ? I'm currently after Civil War. I would love to finally get to the Marvel Now period next year. What titles would you like to read ?

I’ve read the Captain Marvel and Rocket Raccoon series from Marvel Now but would love to jump into the other stuff on there.

I will be lurking if theres a buddy read.
Shaitarn wrote: "Would anyone be interested in reading Juliet E McKenna's Tales of Einarinn starting with The Thief's Gamble next year?"Me. I've been waiting to read these since don't know when.

Great! What month works best for you, Laura? The beginning of any month after January looks good for me.

Laura wrote: "How about March? And the beginning of the month is good for me also."OK, so how about the Thief's gamble on 1st March and the rest on the 1st of every month after that? Does that sound okay?
Guy Gavriel Kay has a new book out in May - A Brightness Long Ago (pause while I do a happy dance). It's a prequel to Children of Earth and Sky so would anyone be interested in reading Brightness in May, and Children in June?
Jess wrote: "Shaitarn,i have Children and need an excuse to try a Guy book. Would be my first!"
Excellent! Would you be okay with us scheduling this towards the end of June?

Sorry!!! I missed this. Yes. That sounds great. I'm looking forward to this series!
I also still have the last book in the narnia chronicles left, The Last Battle, if anyone's interested in buddy reading.

I'm planning on listening to the audiobook, so i can do whenever really. I'd prefer sometime in the first 5 months of 2019

I hope you will be able to find the time Anni but I know that a lot of people are already fully booked for the first half of the year 😅.
