Science Fiction and Fantasy Challenge
I've completed my goal. I'm now King, and it took less that three months. But I've had so much fun, I think I'll continue. Going for God.

WTG!!! I haven't been able to start yet. That's the problem with being a slow reader :)

Congratulations, it's good to be King :P
Thanks, Melissa. And Amber, you're mistaken. It's GREAT to be King. (I hear a Disney song somewhere in that line.)

Excerpt from the rules: "6. Don't like a tile you have landed on? Deduct 1 book and push the panic link to receive a general card like "Read a book from your favorite genre" or "Read a book published in your birth month"
I hope that helped. :)

Marla, have you gone over the Philosophical Science Fiction List? There are so many great books there.
I can recommend




P.S.: I was stuck forever on "A.I." until I started reading Asimov's Robot series. Turned out I loved it. :)

Thanks for the suggestions. I'm just not a huge dystopian or philosophical fan. And since I'm plodding through 2 non-fictions right now, I'm not feeling very patient with my reading.
Well, I've got 4 months to read 4 books...

What questions do you have? The instructions are located in the first message in this thread.
Pick a starting spot, then read a fantasy/sci-fi book that satisfies that condition. Then roll the dice and move to the next spot and continue.
