Random quote: "A lot of the people who read a bestselling novel, for example, do not read much other fiction. By contrast, the audience for an obscure novel is largely composed of people who read a lot. That means the least popular books are judged by people who have the highest standards, while the most popular are judged by people who literally do not know any better. " -- The Economist

pizzakarin - 2016-04-11 5:46 PM Requesting Don't Read This Book edited by Chuck Wendig. It's published by Evil Hat and, as opposed to my last RPG tie-in collection I requested, is in a physical book. ISBN 1613170122

Here you go!

Requesting a novella -- I'm not sure if it counts -- it's up on the author's website, but was originally in Baen's Universe and recent Lightspeed issue.

Kristine Smith's Incident on a Small Colony.

Thanks!

Upcoming books are fine as long as it is not more than a month or two before publication. Earlier and we have trouble finding a synopsis and definitive covers.

These three are in. I've given the benefit of the doubt to Buehrlen. The first book is clearly traditionally published but the second I'm not too sure of.

Hi! Can you please add The league of Extraordinary Gentlemen (The Omnibus Edition)?

http://www.amazon.com/League-Extraordinary-Gentlemen-Omnibus/dp/140...

Thanks!

Isn't there a F.A.Q. around concerning requests?

My understanding, when it comes to comics, is that unless it's nominated for an award or is on a "best of" list, we tend to hold back. If we opened the floor to any comics asked for, that would be thousands of volumes. I'm not kidding. No one around here is ready for that. If we did in fact do any comics we felt like or were requested, League would already be in.
