It will be out in print by Subterranean Press next year - not sure exact date. I have it on pre-order.

This has already been requested, but as we don't currently include audiobook-only entries in the WWEnd database, it will have to wait until the dead tree version comes out from Subterranean Press sometime next year (or it gets nominated for one of the awards we track).

I've got it on my list of things to be added which are awaiting covers, synopses, and Kindle editions; I re-check the things on this list periodically, and when they finally become available, I add them to the database. But feel free to post again when the Amazon Kindle listing is available, if we haven't added it already.

Ok, these three - Sunbolt has a sequel, are now in.

These days, it's not often we get trifectas. Meaning, of course, that the author, publisher, and book(s) had to be added. They were both that way.

No problem. NOT even a challenge.

The third book in A. Smith's current series is due out in June, so it doesn't have a synopsis yet, or I would've taken care of it now. If you ask for it closer to it's street date, one of us will get it done.

I wasn't sure which category it should go in, so I stuck it in horror. Vampires....

Hah! Plenty more where that came from...

How about Robert E. Vardeman's Demon Crown trilogy and Jade Demons quartet:

Demon Crown
1. The Glass Warrior
2. Phantoms on the Wind
3. A Symphony of Storms

Jade Demons
1. The Quaking Lands
2. The Frozen Waves
3. The Crystal Clouds
4. The White Fire

Thanks!

I've started a book entitled I am Number Four by Pittacus Lore. It has aliens and telekinesis so it qualifies for the SF genre. I checked with WWEnd to see if there were any reviews. There aren't. The book isn't listed. Neither is Pittacus Lore, who apparently has published quite a few books in this series. I was surprised.

Hello

I am wondering if we can add two books by Salman Rushdie: The Ground Beneath Her Feet and Midnight's Children.

Midnight's Children is about a group of children born with telepathy
The Ground Beneath Her Feet is described as magical realism, and is a retelling of the story of Orpheus and Eurydice

It's probably because "Pittacus Lore" is one of the author pseudonyms given to several lines of books produced by James Frey's book factory, where multiple unknown authors are given the dubious privilege of churning out, for almost no money, books which are not published under their name, and to which they do not own the rights.

These are in.

Rushdie better watch it, or he might make fantasy into a respectable genre in the eyes of the literati.

Hi, can you please add Rob Boffard's Outer Earth trilogy Tracer, Zero-G and Impact? Thanks!
He did those book raps http://io9.gizmodo.com/rob-boffard-throws-down-his-recommended-read... a while back and I ordered his first book right away then, but got around to it only now - seems to be a solid space station thriller.
Actually, his videos and the need to know more about all those books brought me back to WWE and got me seriously addicted to the reading challenges!

These seven got put in. Talk about obscure works. Trying to find synopsis on them all was a challenge.
