Ubik-Macchiavelli
Rendezvous with Rama-Aloha
Embassytown-Richard
Signal to Noise-Scott
Revelation Space-Mark

[Kevin]

I would like to nominate Dies the Fire.

[Amanda]

How about The Midwhich Cuckoos?

[Mach]

I will nominate Ubik by Philip K Dick.

[Maggie, space cruisin' for a bruisin']

Did you mean to put that in the horror/sci-fi amanda? or is it more appropriate in the random?

[Amanda]

yeah I meant to put it in the horror sci-fi oops1 Need me to shift it?

[Aloha]

Rendezvous With Rama

[Jenny]

I was going to nominate something, but now I think I'll put my vote behind Philip K. Dick! I was probably going to nominate one of his books anyways. Rendezvous With Rama would be great to read too.

[Scott]

Signal to Noise

I love his short stories! I started with The Philip K. Dick Reader and I just fell in love. I have another collection on his short stories, but I don't remember which one. He instantly became one of my favorite authors. I want to read everything he's written!

[Richard]

Embassytown by China Miéville

I've just got a hold of this one, and it seems to be getting people interested.

You can, if you think it's more appropriate. It does not matter for me.
