The May 2015 Fantasy Theme is Open Nominations.

For this round of nominations, any book you would like to nominate that fits within our standard rules below is eligible .....

That should lead to some pretty interesting nominations, I think....

Remember our few rules:
1. They must be available as an ebook
2. One nomination and one seconding per person
3. No nominating your own book and
4. Mods can veto a nomination if they decide the book doesn't fit ... :-)


And, as always, authors selected in the past 12 months may not be nominated. For a list, you may check here: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...

Jeffrey Collyer I'm new here and still learning the rules, so hope this is in keeping. I'd like to nominate The Shadow of What Was Lost, by James Islington. Probably the best self-pub book I've read.

Bridgett Ashley | 5 comments I'll second Kushiel's Dart, I've been meaning to read it again, anyway.

I think it might be fun to go old school for a nomination this go round and the first Discworld novel I read back in the day: Wyrd Sisters by Terry Pratchett

Joella Berkner | 32 comments I second Wyrd Sisters by Terry Pratchett. I nominate The Godmother by Elizabeth Ann Scarborough.

Al "Tank" (alkalar) | 231 comments I second Brownbird's Luck.

I would like to nominate "Storm Coming" by Terry Perrine. (It's hard SF. Is that outside the rules?)

Sorry. The email note was confusing on that point. It almost sounded like anything was up for grabs, even mysteries or children's books. Didn't make sense, but I figured this would nail it down one way or the other.

Donna (donnahr) I'll second The Anubis Gates.


message 14: by [deleted user] (new)

I think this is a long shot nomination, but it's a fantasy book I've bern wanting to read for a long time: Tales of Nevèrÿon by Samuel R. Delany.
