Okay sorry if this list gets a little long -- I just started using BookTrackr yesterday so it's all very fresh in my mind!

Alice Bradley Sheldon -- I'm wondering if she should be listed as Tiptree? just cause probably that' the name most people will be looking for, not Sheldon.
Books:
Her Smoke Rose Up Forever
Star Songs of an Old Primate
Brightness Falls from the Air
Crown of Stars
The Starry Rift
Out of the Everywhere and Other Stories
Byte Beautiful

Joanna Russ -- We Who Are About To...

Markus Zuzak -- The Book Thief may or may not count as SpecFic, depending on how you look at it. It's got a personification of death? So that's something

Orson Scott Card:
Wyrms
Hart's Hope
Keeper of Dreams (short story collection)
Maps in a Mirror (short story collection)
The Worthing Saga
Pastwatch: The Redemption of Christopher Columbus
Songmaster
Treasure Box
Homebody
Enchantment
Magic Street

Ellen Klages -- Portable Childhoods

Tamora Pierce
The Song of the Lioness Quartet: Alanna: The First Adventure, In the Hand of the Goddess, The Woman Who Rides Like a Man, Lioness Rampant
The Immortals series: Wild Magic, Wolf-Speaker, Emperor Mage, The Realms of the Gods
Protector of the Small Quartet: First Test, Page, Squire, Lady Night
Tricksters duology: Trickster's Choice, Trickster's Queen
Circle of Magic: Sandry's Book, Tris's Book, Daja's Book, Briar's Book
The Circle Opens: Magic Steps, Street Magic, Cold Fire, Shatterglass
The Will of the Empress
Melting Stones

Diana Wynne Jones
Chrestomanci series: Charmed Life, The Magicians of Caprona, Witch Week, The Lives of Christopher Chant, Mixed Magics, Conrad's Fate, The Pinhoe Egg
Dalemark Quartet: The Spellcoats, Cart and Cwidder, Drowned Ammet, Crown of Dalemark
Derkholm series: Dark Lord of Derkholm, Year of the Griffin

Sylvia Engdahl -- Enchantress from the Stars

Again, sorry for the long list -- and apologies for the fact that I'm inevitably going to post in here with more things.

Thanks all for the flood of suggestions!  We're not moving as fast as we'd like on getting these added but we'll get there eventually.  Should have another batch of updates soon if work doesn't kill me first

@Nefario: I actually thought the same thing as I was requesting it. I had to look it up to make sure. I've just read through the whole series in rapid succession and have almost no idea which pieces of the series go with each book title (except for Explorer, my favorite so far). Precursor and Pretender have been used, but Protector is the one that just came out. As I write this, I can't even remember the title of the one I'm on now, but I know it's book 13, the first of the fifth trilogy (!). But I'm enjoying it, so what the hell...

This series is so old the latest should probably be called Pacemaker.

Looks like my request was in the wrong place, so I'll add it again here.

Can you add Nalo Hopkinson's Sister Mine to the database? I want to read it for the WoGFchallenge.

Thanks!

So, it's been a while since we got a batch of these done for you guys but we finally have some new books for you:

 

We also just added a bunch of new books for the WoGF reading challenge so there are some book requests from this thread, for books by women authors, that ended up over there.  It was just easier to split along the gender line than to search through this thread for them.

Happy reading!

Hello,
Been using the the site for quite sometime now. This will be my first post. I have always had good recommendations from lists and compilations that people post online for Scifi books. The books included in these lists might give users more exposure to a wider variety of sci fi.

I must have been bored so I did a bit of research and found some missing books you can add to the Easton Press list:

Found on current ebay auctions:

The Mysterious Island

The Engines of God

Virtual Death


These below were on the Easton press website:

Lensman saga - first six only, no Masters of the Vortex

The Land that Time Forgot trilogy

The Land that Time Forgot by Burroughs
The People that Time Forgot by Burroughs
Out of Time's Abyss by Burroughs

They Walk Among Us series

Who Goes There? by Campbell
The Puppet Masters by Heinlein
The Midwich Cuckoos by Wyndham
The Man who Fell to Earth by Tevis
The Invasion of the Body Snatchers by Finney

At the Earth's Core by Burroughs

You might also consider:

American Gods

She

Easton has an edition for these two out, but they're listed under fantasy. But since they're in the database anyway...

According to those nice Amazon people there is a new Priscilla Hutchins' novel (Jack McDevitt's Academy series) called Starhawk. Let the Nebula logrolling commence.
