Imager by L. E. Modisett Jr. [book:Imager|4643301
Very interesting read. Thought-provoking fantasy.

I am a bit late to the LOTR party.

Advent of Snow White to Hell Volume 1

I am currently rereading the Discworld series (seeing it grow before my eyes now that I know what form the characters will eventually take has been awesome). I'm up to book 10, Moving Pictures

City of Glass. Just started yesterday.

I just started to read today If I Stay, and so far it's great :)

I'm planning on reading and on my next day off.

Biography of Mieczysława Ćwiklińska, some great polish actress. Great actress, not so good book.

Question:

Can anyone recommend graphic novels/science fiction that focuses on the environment?

Thanks!

Ummm.... The Uglies, Pretties, Specials series by by Scott Westerfeld kinda touches on issues of the environment. They're science fiction novels.

Environment as in "green."

Could be anything: a different world, a env. superhero :-)

Something like Avatar, where there are other components of the story, but bottom line, the story makes a point about the environment.

The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms

Thanks, Ashley! And it has good reviews as well.

Currently reading The Exiled Queen and the Heretic's Daughter....very different genres, I know, but I just cant read one book at a time, never have.

I just finished Shadow and Bone, and LOVED it. It's YA in the tradition of Graceling and the Hunger Games - a complex female heroine with a major obstacle to overcome. It's set in a fantasy world modeled on Russia. Some denizens of this world are "Grisha," and have powers (called the Small Science) that fall into one of three categories: the ability to summon an element, the ability to heal or harm, or the ability to fabricate. Really good - I gave it five stars.

I can't read only one book at a time.

I am currently reading
So far it is AWESOME!

Ohh I want to read that

I'm currently reading & .

Im reading & Spice and Wolf book #2
