I also wanted to bring to your attention that we currently have a group on goodreads.com, which is a wonderful book website with almost every book under the sun catalogued in their system. We have a couple of discussions regarding past read books on there too.

As we are halfway through the month of September, I want to open up the nomination process for October's read! This nomination process will be approximately 1 week long closing it out on the 21st of Sep. Voting process will open up shortly after nominations close out.

All are welcome to join us if you have a great book you would like to suggest. We try to stick to the science fiction/fantasy genres, but if you know of a book outside this scope that you loved, please nominate it! Please provide us with the book title, author, and maybe a reason why you would like to submit your nominee. Please, only one nomination per person as I will be keeping track of who submits what.

I would like to nominate The Aimless Expedition by Leland Brown because I have heard nothing but good things about this read, and it is also written by one of our fellow TESTies, @Han Burgundy !

Lockstep, by Karl Schroeder
I love the concept behind it, and the book itself is well done, too.

 

[Bruttle]

I'm in the mood for an anti-hero story. I nominate:

Heroes die
by Matthew Woodring Stover

Yep, it's pretty damn good so far, interesting hard magic system. Reminds me a bit of Sanderson's style of writing.

 

[Fin_Corso]

The Misplaced Legion , the first novel in the Videssos Cycle by Harry Turtledove.
Its about a Roman legion that gets transported magically to another land in turmoil and in need of their unique fighting style.
