Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

So PR..
Could you please post your mother the author's nom de plume one more time?

Hey, shameless plugs for family is fine with me!

I lost track of the other thread you had it posted in.

I am out of book and always willing to try someone new.

... and I have requested that Nico send them on to me, since I am in Australia as well and all it makes sense... but I would be happy to pass them on after I am done reading them!

And I will second my Mei Mei's recommendation of her mother's books - they are wonderful, written for a younger reader (and my 11-year-old neice is loving them too!) I enjoyed them thoroughly and am going to reread them!!

Thank you for starting this Flyvote and Rose, Mavourneen and MsG!!

P.S. I intend to read Terry Pratchett one day too, but I think that will be while I am in France next year! Most of my books are in storage at the moment, but in coming weeks and months I am going to be assessing what I keep and what I don't in order to reduce what i store so I will probably have some to contribute soon!

I do have a lot of Dickens novels... if anyone is interested in the classics...

You know what the first rule of flyin' is? Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take a boat in the air that you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of worlds. And love keeps her in the air when she oughtta fall down… tells ya she's hurtin' 'fore she keels… makes her a home.

I'll add With Nails to my list shortly.

Hell's Kitten emailed me to mention that although she would eventually like to read Dresden, she has a stack of books right now. So she doesn't want to be next right after Nicodemus. (She still wants to be in the loop, though.)

Nico - perhaps you could send the Dresden books to Magda. I think she has interest.

I thought that LA29 was also interested in Dresden. Or did you send your Dresden set to LA29?
