Location: Dallas, Texas | The other request thread was getting a bit long in the tooth so let's start a new one. It looks like most of those requests have already been handled but if there are any that we missed please copy them into this new thread.
Some notes on requests:
- only Science Fiction, Fantasy, or Horror books in English
- novels, collections, anthologies, related non-fiction, novellas, novelettes, award-winning short stories are all fair game
- traditionally published books only - no self-published or vanity press books at this time
- please provide title and author
- if your requested book is part of a series please include the series name and all titles in the series if we don't have them already
- eBook only books are OK as long as they are from a traditional publisher
If you request a boat-load of books at the same time you may get a frowning so please only request books you need for your reading challenges or that you intend to review etc. We want to be able to respond to everyone as fast as we can so hit us with a few at a time rather than a giant list. There are exceptions to some of these guidelines (like if a self-published book gets an award nomination) and we're pretty loose in our interpretation of genre but they're straight forward enough. Please keep in mind that our Uber Users are strictly volunteers and may not be able to get to your requests right away. We also have other projects, like new awards and lists, that may take them away from fulfilling requests.
If you have any questions post them here. Cheers!

General Guidelines for Short Fiction requests
Most of the Novellas, Novelettes, and Short Stories which have been entered into the database thus far has fallen into at least one of the following categories (and a lot of it has fallen into two of them): 1) nominated for, or won, an Award
2) available to read for free online
3) available to purchase in standalone form (rather than only as part of a magazine, collection, or anthology)  |

Location: New Zealand | Yah, new thread!
Can we get the remainder of Michael Scott Rohan's Winter of the World series? Book 1 went in recently as part of the Fantasy Masterworks series, but books 2 through 6 still need to be added. Thought I might give this series a read as I have had them in my to be read pile for going on 15 years!
Also, while on Michael Scott Rohan, can you add the stand alone book The Lord of Middle Air. |

H. Warner Munn - King of the World's Edge
Arthur Byron Cover - An East Wind Coming (I know it seems a touch iffy, but there's plenty of SF facets to the plot)

Robert Lynn Asprin and Lynn Abbey's Thieves' World series of anthologies (I think there are 12)
And left over from a prior post - the rest of the John Grimes series by A. Bertram Chandler (I know that one is kinda long, I think 22 novels and several omnibus editions)
If anyone lives in the Houston area, the various (8, I think) Half Price Books outlets have been flooded lately with vintage SF and fantasy paperbacks, dating back into the early 60's, even some old Ace Doubles! |

I do indeed have the 3 book version. I guess that's one way to bump up my 'books read' total, although it seems a little like cheating!  |

Isn't there a F.A.Q. around concerning requests?
My understanding, when it comes to comics, is that unless it's nominated for an award or is on a "best of" list, we tend to hold back. If we opened the floor to any comics asked for, that would be thousands of volumes. I'm not kidding. No one around here is ready for that. If we did in fact do any comics we felt like or were requested, League would already be in.

Location: Belgium | Can someone add "The Second Chronicles Of Amber", an omnibus of the Merlin cycle of Amber (books #6-10) by Zelazny https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/451521.The_Second_Chronicles_of_Amber_Books_6_10 as well as the companion omnibus of that, just called "The Chronicles of Amber" (the Corwin cycle, books #1-5) https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/316876.The_Chronicles_of_Amber Both cycles are regarded to be pretty different, so there's something to be said for seperate entries.

I read the first 3 when they came out, but never bothered to continue because I didn't think they were very good. I did the same. What a disappointment. Especially since I thought that the quality of the Star Trek novels was starting to decline at that point, too. Of course it turned out later that Shatner hadn't actually written them, either. |

It is not exclusive though so other shorts can be added as requested. So far, all the short fiction added to the WWEnd database meets at least one (and usually two) of these criteria: 1) Hugo or Nebula nominee or winner
2) Available to read for free online from an established genre short fiction venue such as Tor.com, Lightspeed, Clarkesworld, Beneath Ceaseless Skies, Strange Horizons, etc.
3) Available to purchase as an individual story (not as part of a collection or anthology) |

I have read The Mirror Thief, and I would say it fits the Magical Realism category we have here. It's kind of an historical thriller with a side-order of magic.

I have read comparisons to Cloud Atlas... Those comparisons are being made because it has three different storylines in three different times in history, something Cloud Atlas also did. But some of Cloud Atlas' storylines are in a hypothetical future. None in this book are -- and I've read several reviews where people complained about being misled by that comparison However, Weesam has read it and says it is magical realism, and I've seen a couple of reviews which mention alchemy and magic, so it's probably sufficiently speculative. |

Okay, I've added skeleton records for the books (there are 20 of them!) right now, and will get back and do the Amazon/Audible links and the synopses as I can (or another Uber can feel free to do that, too). ISFDB isn't cooperating right now -- I managed to get the series page, but couldn't get the individual book pages -- so I've put them all in as Published by Starblaze and will have to fix the Publishers later, too. It doesn't appear as though there's been an anthology of the associated short fiction. |

Grr - finally found it. It's not in the series with the rest, but just the title in a list. NOT easy to find. It is marked as being in the same series, and if you search on "Chalion", or click "The Chalion Series" on any of the books in the series, it will come up (and of course, it comes up in a search for either or both words of the title). It also shows up with the rest of the books if you look under the SF/F/H Series feature for Fantasy beginning with the letter C. However, because it is short fiction rather than a novel, it does not appear grouped with the novels on the author's page -- it appears in the list of their short fiction at the bottom of the page. |

Gardner Fox - Hunter out of Time Already in under variant titles: C.L. Moore - Black God's Kiss. This one is a variant of Jirel of Joiry. The collection has been published under four different names that I am aware of but more only ever wrote six Jirel stories.
Edward P. Bradbury (AKA Michael Moorcock) - Barbarians of Mars. This one is in under the title Masters of the Pit (Moorcock). David J. Lake is a pain to enter and the book you request is one in a series. I will come back for this one later. Dray Prescott Series and John Grimes series. Depending on how you count the Presscott series has 50+ booke and Grimes 30+. It ain't happening right now. I will see if one of the other uberuseers fancies a project. |

Also the last in VE Schwab's Shades of magic trilogy-due in February next year. Or is it too early to ask?? Thanks! I prefer not to enter books until about two months before publication. Mostly for practical reasons. Publication schedules change, cover art may not be definitive, no excerpts are available yet, it is often unclear if the will be an audio book edition etc. It's easier to for us to wait a bit and get all the information in in one go. Also, with the exception of the people who have access to ARCs, members can't actually read those novels yet. I'd rather put something it that is of more immediate use. I'll keep an eye on both titles. They will be added a little closer to the publication date.

| I have quite a few I can't find here (sorry). Some I hope are easier- the publishers are listed but not the books: Wesley Chu's latest "Days of Tao" is from Subterranean Press, Aurlie Venem's "Samantha Watkins" is from Amazon Crossing, and Janina Matthewson's "Of Things Gone Astray" is from Harper Collins UK (The Friday Project imprint).
I've also been reading quite a few from smaller publishers not listed here:
Fahrenheit Press: Jo Perry's "Dead is Better" & "Dead is Best"
Black Rose Writing: Kurt Godwin's "The Eternal Footman" and Damon Norko's "The Ghost Writer"
Kindle Press (publisher for books found thru Kindle Scout) Rob Blackwell's "Forest of Forever" & "The Pretender"
And I don't know if it's possible to add self published? I became such a fan of Blackwell after "Forest" that I just purchased all of his earlier self published "Sandheim Chronicles"
Any you can add will be much appreciated. Thanks |

We don't at the moment add self-published works unless we need them for a specific list or award or there is another pressing reason to add them. There is so much of it out there that we couldn't possibly keep up. Or distinguish between the barely edited crap and the books that are actually readable.
Of the others the Blackweel's looks very self published to me. CreateSpace is Amazon's POD project. I'm not entirely sure about Godwin and Perry so I will put them up for discussion in the uberuser forum.

"Mwalimu in the Squared Circle" by "Mike Resnick" was nominated for a Hugo Award Short Story, but I suppose it wasn't released stand-alone and thus doesn't get an entry? It is featured in "New Dreams for Old"

It is featured in "New Dreams for Old" Same story for "The Story So Far" by "Martha Soukup" So far, all the short fiction added to the WWEnd database meets at least one (and usually two) of these criteria: 1) Hugo or Nebula nominee or winner
2) Available to read for free online from an established genre short fiction venue such as Tor.com, Lightspeed, Clarkesworld, Beneath Ceaseless Skies, Strange Horizons, etc.
3) Available to purchase as an individual story (not as part of a collection or anthology) We've been adding the Nebula- and Hugo-nominated short fiction as we are able (not surprisingly, this is hundreds of entries, and when we add a piece of short fiction, if there is not already in the DB at least one collection or anthology with the short work in it, we've been adding at least one of those as well). The two stories you mention will definitely get added at some point, either now or later. |

These are Hugo nominated so I haven't gotten to them yet. I sneaked them in just now. Other Hugo material will follow when I'm done with the Nebula but it will be a while before I get to them.

But Sandheim is definitely self published.
Black Rose & Fahrenheit are pretty new. Fahrenheit is predominately a mystery publisher with Perry being the exception so I understand if it doesnt work.

Sorry for the wait, I've been a bit busy this week so I've only done Nebula stuff. I've been looking into this author and I'm unsure which books you actually mean. I can find a Saint Vidicon series but it is two short stories and a novel. I have the nagging suspicion that one is not the one you mean. Can you have a look at this page and tell me which ones you want?

Thanks! Those appear to all be author-self-published/print-on-demand books, which right now are outside the parameters of what get added to the WWEnd database, except in those rare cases where a work has been nominated for an award we cover, or they're works by established authors. |

I added one that it does mention as being in a series with the book that won a WFA. The more I look into it, the more unsure I get the books are actually related (other than thematically). I'm having a hard time figuring out what falls within the scope of the site and what doesn't. Going to see if one of the other uberusers has read any of her work before I add more.

Location: The Netherlands | Question: how far in advance of publication can books be added to the database? Or do you only honor requests for books already published?
Some books get added very early but personally I don't add them until about two months prior to the release date. The reason for this is that release dates may get pushed back, cover art may not be final, information of ebook and audio book releases is not always presents and the chances of finding an excerpt are pretty much zero if you add them too early. Also, only a few of our readers have access to advance copies. The majority simply can't read books before they are released. Since we are never short of stuff to add I prefer to work on stuff that is more immediately useful.
Unless an other uberuser swings by tonight I will look at the latest batch of requests tomorrow. |

Is there a chance somebody could add 'Red Queen' by Christina Henry? It's the sequel to 'Alice', so that one will probably need updating to show it as part of a series as well.
Many thanks in advance.

Dlw28 - 2016-07-30 3:47 PM
Also Jodi Taylor's novella The First Damn Thing. I'm the one who's been adding in these novels, because I read them, too. However, she's got several pieces of e-book-only short fiction, including this one, which I think are probably outside the parameters of the short fiction we've been adding. We may revisit this policy in the future at some point, and if so, I'll keep these short ebooks in mind for additions. |

Th Schwab novel is in. The Gilded Cage won't be out until January. I don't add books until a month or two before the publication date as a general rule. The further in advance you added them, the greater the chance it gets postponed, publishers fiddle with the cover art etc. It will be added in due time, I put it on my list. Octavia's Brood is a bit of a pain in the backside to add but definitely one that should be in. I'm out of time for now but I will come back to it. If not later today then tomorrow.

We have the first in the Michael Gallatin series, The Wolf's Hour, in the database, but not the followup, The Hunter From the Woods.
And we have the novella, I Travel By Night. There is a sequel, due out in October, Last Train From Perdition.
And since I recently came into possession of a bunch of older McCammon's I intend to read, can you also add the following:
Baal, Bethany's Sin, The Night Boat, Mystery Walk and Usher's Passing. I think I will be all horrored out by the time I finish that lot.

That's probably because it's an unknown self-published author, which is currently outside the scope of the WWEnd database.
(I notice that they're claiming to be a Hugo nominee, which does not really speak well for them. If one person nominates you, yeah, well, I guess you're a nominee -- but it's not the same thing as being a Hugo Finalist, and it's not exactly something to brag about, especially if one is doing so in an attempt to confuse the reader into thinking that you're a Hugo Finalist.)

| Hi, I don't know what's your policy, if the UK/US versions of the same book have different names or where I should point this out, but Emmi Itaranta's The Weaver and The City of the Woven Streets are one and the same book, Kudottujen Kuijen Kaupunki in Finnish. |

Yea that looks like a duplicate, It should be listed as a variant title. I'll see that it's fixed.

Location: Alief, TX | Thanks for that. Since we were on the topic, I double checked my shelf and found a few more that I have by Bradbury, but you/we don't. I couple of them may be less SF than just fiction, but I want to toss them out there.
Let's All Kill Constance
We'll Always Have Paris
Green Shadows, White Whale
Cat's Pajamas

That's because you've chosen 50 books as your level for the Books Read This Year: 2016 challenge. Set your level up to 100 or 150, and then you'll be able to add these. |

Location: Belgium | Can you add 'Armageddon In Retrospect' by Kurt Vonnegut? I'm not sure it qualifies for WWE. It's a collection of short stories, one speech and a biographical introduction on Kurt by his son Mark. Only one of the stories is explicitly speculative (it has a time machine). The rest does read as an excellent (partly nonfictional) companion to Slaughterhouse-Five, as certain stories deal with the bombing of Dresden too. It was published a year after Kurt's death. |

Shallow Graves by Kali Wallace
The May Queen Murders by Sarah Jude
The Little Woods and The Glass Casket by McCormick Templeman
Julia Vanishes by Catherine Egan
The Last One by Alexandra Oliva (which may be a bit iffy for genre fiction but I think it's dark enough to appease post apocalypse horror fans - I leave that decision up to you guys)

Ok all of of these are in now except The Little Woods. I put that one up for discussion in the uberuser forum. Don't really see much in the way of speculative content in the description.

In retrospect, LITTLE WOODS is much more thriller/mystery. There's a vague hint of supernatural but likely not enough to qualify it.
Thanks again for entering the rest

Nick Cutter is a new horror author. I read his first novel The Troop this month as part of the reddit /r/books bookclub and it was fantastic.

His other novels probably deserve to be added as well but I haven't read them personally so I cannot attest.

Scalzi has a new novella (free as an audiobook right now) called the Dispatcher. Could you please add when you can? Thanks. I snapped that baby up in the pre-order, too, and it's really good -- 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'll be watching for when that happens -- but if you see it happen first, just post here again, and I'll make sure it gets put in. |

Having just been through the series lists on WWE I have found it lacks a little in the horror series. A lot of what is there isn't really horror so much as a darker shade of urban fantasy. So I am making it my mission to get some good horror into the database.
To start with can you please add:
By Michael McDowell (not to be confused with Michael Kube-McDowell. This one is the one who co-wrote the screenplays for Beetlejuice and The Nightmare Before Christmas)
The Elementals
Blackwater originally published in six volumes, Blackwater is the onmibus version).
Cold Moon Over Babylon
Gilded Needles
The Amulet
The Motion of Puppets - Keith Donohue
Whistling Past the Graveyard - a short story collection by Jonathan Maberry
The Graveyard Apartment - Mariko Koike

Got my fingers crossed for seeing Meeting at Infinity going in soon! That is one of his early novels. I'm working my way backward. Will probably get there in a day or two.

I can't seem to find Sold For Endless Rue - Sarah Porter. Are you sure you got the right author? Can you provide me with a link? I'm done adding Brunner. I think we have a decent selection now but if there is anything you want that is missing let me know.

Sarah Porter is the author of The Lost Voices series and Vassa in the Night. The Robins novel is considered non-genre by ISFDB. Strikes me as historical fiction.

Based on what I've read on Amazon and GoodReads now, I would agree. It's a re-telling of Rapunzel, but does not appear to actually have any magic or fantasy elements to it.

Location: New Zealand | Ahh, you are right. Sorry, wrong author. I was going through so many books at the time that I messed that one up.
I suspect you are correct about Sold For Endless Rue. I had my doubts, but thought the fairytale aspect of it might work. I will let you know if it fits once I have read it.
These ones, however, I hope fit
The Root by Na'amen Gobert Tilahun - Urban Fantasy
Strange Life of Ivan Osokin by P D Ouspensky - a Russian 'Replay' type story
Graynelore by Stephen Moore - Fantasy
Tales From the Nightside by Simon R Green - short story collection in the Nightside series
Before 12:01 and After by Richard A. Lupoff - Short Story collection containing SF, Fantasy and Horror. 12:01 was the short story that got made into the wonderful time travel movie of the same name. |

Maggots by Nina Allan
Priest Hole by KJ Parker
Gnaw by Tade Thompson
Skin Deep by Sarah Lotz
The Best Story I Can Manage Under the Circumstances by Robert Shearman
I am wondering if these novellas can be added, either separately or in the omnibus edition.
Also, due to be released on 20 December is a new novella from Alastair Reynolds, The Iron Tactician
Speaking of Sarah Lotz, can we also get the sequel to The Three, it is called Day Four.

I don't really see a problem with adding them as new separate books, to be honest. They are already omnibuses. These could just be considered different omnibuses.
I'm not too fussed either way. I have the original separate paperbacks, and I'll mark the omnibuses as read if I feel like filling in the blanks on the lists. Otherwise I tend to prefer recording the collected books separately. |

The geek completist in me says that if they're actually on both lists, they should appear on both lists, so that someone can see the accurate totals and percentages of how much they've read on both those lists. |

There are also a couple of books I am not sure whether you would think fit into the database - I think they do, but I leave the judgement up to you:
Escape from Baghdad! - Saad Hossain (includes Djinn and other supernatural creatures)
Wolf Winter - Cecilia Ekback (it would fit magical realism, set in a place where the real world and spirit world coincide and mingle - includes spirits and demons)

Edited to add: I'm not sure how you'd classify Kristell Ink, which is an imprint of Grimbold Books - my understanding is that they're a micro- / small-publisher, so personally I'd consider them as part of the 'traditional publishers' umbrella.

Once a Challenge expires, no more books can be completed on it. So if you have a chance, you may want to review your current RYO Reading Challenges, and update books or goal levels if necessary.

It always helps if you give both the title and author, since I have to look them up to add them - and if several novels all have the same title...

Can you please add "the dispatcher" by John Scalzi? I think it is in audiobook format only... 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.

Location: Fort Myers, Florida USA | 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. |

Location: Wales | 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.

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!

and
Yana Vagner's To the Lake.
I don't know about the latter - maybe its English publisher is too small or too indie for this site, but it has been translated into ten or so languages and has got some awards and nominations. I haven't read it myself yet, but I have heard only good things from those who have.
Thanks! |

Um, well, I don't have it yet. I have requested it as an ILL from my local library. They haven't told me 'no' yet.
And, WorldCat shows that a bunch of libraries have it available.

These are in. I put the whole Flashing Swords series in for you.
And no, not even close to being obscure. I normally have a window open with two tabs. And this provides all the data I need to enter a book. If I have to go out to five, six or seven tabs to get a one sentence synopsis and a jpeg of the cover, that's obscure.

Wolf Winter - Cecilia Ekback (it would fit magical realism, set in a place where the real world and spirit world coincide and mingle - includes spirits and demons)
The info in this one makes it seem like historical fiction, something in a gothic tone. So if you're sure it's got magical realism elements, ok, then, it's in. I stuck it in horror since gothic is usually associated that way.

Offenwanger and the series is called "The Septimus Series." The books are "Seventh Son," "Cat and Mouse," and "Checkmate." The short answer is no. The longer answer is in the FAQ that I'll quote here: Currently, fiction can be added to the WWEnd database if it falls into one or more of the following categories: - fiction which appears on one of the awards we cover
- fiction which appears on one of the "Best of" lists we cover
- traditionally-published speculative fiction novels, collections, and anthologies which appear in the ISFDB
- self-published novels which are available as standalone physical volumes by established authors who are already in the WWEnd database
- traditionally-published shorter fiction (usually novellas) which is available as standalone physical volumes through traditional outlets such as Amazon
- shorter fiction which appears in collections and anthologies already in the WWEnd database and is available to read for free on Internet websites
- shorter fiction which appears for free online on Tor.com, Clarkesworld, and Lightspeed Magazine among others
- traditionally-published non-fiction works which are directly related to the Speculative Fiction genre
So there are rare occasions that a self-pubbed book can get in - award nomination or established author's books - but the emphasis is on traditionally-published books.

I also put in the first two books in the Shattered Realms series since it's in the Seven Realms universe.
Also, with this sort of fantasy, I have little idea how to mark it's sub-genre tags, so If you (and everyone else who read them) will mark that, it'll help everyone find similar works.

It's a bit too early for September publications.

Location: The Netherlands | Weesam - 2017-01-21 4:50 AM Can you please add a book by Graham Joyce. My edition is called Do the Creepy Thing, but it also seems to have an alternate name of The Exchange. I guess what it is called depends on where you live. Also can you add Drink, Slay, Love by Sarah Beth Durst: Thanks These are in. I put the Joyce novel in as Do the Creepy Thing since that is the title of the first publication.

Location: Washington state | Also: Wylding Hall by Elizabeth Hand won the 2015 Shirley Jackson Award for Novella. Could it please be tagged as "Novella" in the database? People may then find it when searching for novellas for the novella-based challenge. Also also: "Near Zennor" by Elizabeth Hand won the 2011 Shirley Jackson Award for Novella. It is not in the database, but both collections it was included in - A Book of Horrors, ed. by Stephen Jones, Jo Fletcher books, AND later Hand's own collection, Errantry: Strange Stories - are. I would love it if "Near Zennor" could be entered separately and tagged "novella", much as Ted Chiang's individual stories/novellas/novelettes are. (Another novella from the Errantry collection - The Maiden Flight of McCauley's Bellerophon - is already listed separately.) Thanks again!

From reading the description, I don't think this is something we'd list. It's Amazon page lists it in both the mystery and psychological thriller categories; not something we deal with. Please refer to the FAQ.

From reading the description, I don't think this is something we'd list. It's Amazon page lists it in both the mystery and psychological thriller categories; not something we deal with. Please refer to the FAQ. ISFDB hasn't listed this yet (they do show a bunch of genre works for Pinborough and 1 non-genre work). I looked into this out of curiosity, and there are a bunch of people on the internet whingeing and complaining about the fact that the "big surprise ending" is supernatural (they thought it should be realist). So I'm guessing that it does probably fall under WWEnd's domain.

Is she sort of a Fabulist like Calvino? that sort of thing? Her author's bio describes her fiction as "fabulist", and the description for Submissions on the website of the publisher of this book says "We accept... magical realism and dystopic works" (among other things listed). So I'm guessing that yes, her writing runs along the same lines as Calvino and Borges. Based on the description of some of the stories, they would certainly qualify as speculative fiction (they include a robot, and a woman who grows a protective layer of razor blades on her skin). |

Dalkey hasn't published any novels since 2002, but she has had a handful of short stories published in the last 15 years. It's a bit odd that she hasn't brought her back catalog out in e-book yet. |

Steven Poore: The Heir To The North (pub. 2015 Kristell Ink - 2016 British Fantasy Awards Best Newcomer nominee)
Steven Poore: The High King's Vengeance (pub. 2016 Kristell Ink) - sequel to the above
Lila Bowen: Conspiracy of Ravens (pub. 2016 Orbit) - sequel to Wake of Vultures
Alan Smale: Eagle in Exile (pub. 2016 Del Ray/Titan) - sequel to Clash of Eagles
Sophe E. Tallis: White Mountain (pub. 2014 Kristell Ink)
A.F.E. Smith: Darkhaven (pub. 2015 Harper Voyager)
A.F.E. Smith: Goldenfire (pub. 2016 Harper Voyager) - sequel to the above
These are all in.
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.
Hiya
The third book in A.F.E. Smith's series, titled Windsinger, is now out in ebook format in the UK - I just downloaded it to my Fire. Is it possible for someone to add it to the database so I can add the trilogy to my Triumvirate Challenge please?
Many thanks in advance.
Naomi.

Hi, Please could you add White Horse by Alex Adams?
White Horse is in and the sequel is in process but doesn't have a releases date yet. When you notice that it's out, or has a confirmed release date, give us a heads up on this thread and one of us will see to it.

The Book of the New Sun (Vol. 1: Shadow and Claw) and The Book of the New Sun (Vol. 2: Sword and Citadel) by Gene Wolfe are in the database and show under the Fantasy Masterworks list. They are also part of the SF Masterworks. Can they be added to that list as well with the alternate cover? This has been discussed a couple of times before. There's a reason for it -- database structure limitations don't provide the ability to do thiseasily.
Scribble, I am trying to read all of the SF Masterworks books over the course of the next few years. Can you tell me when these appeared in the publication order? I don' t want to miss any of them. ty |

As far as I can tell the Wolfe books appeared in the sf masterworks series in november 2016, which would put it right after China Mountain Zhang and Starship Troopers. Both of those were published in october.
Note that the order we present them in on our list is our best guess.

Someone seems to be doing a pretty good job of keeping up the Wikipedia entry for SF Masterworks; I recommend using that as your guide.

Best guess is good enough for me! I am just using "publication order" as a guide to make this into an interesting book club experience, and I want to make sure I'm not missing any. Thanks for the help!

| Hello! Back to pester you again! In addition to that Deathlands book, could you please add Asimov's Gold: The Final Science Fiction Collection for me? It would be perfect for the Genre Non-Fiction Challenge, since about half of it is stories, and the other half is Asimov's advice on writing science fiction (needless to say, I'm excited about it!) Thank you! |

Right now we limit graphic novels to stuff that is nominated for one of the awards we track and short fiction to stuff that is either available for free online or nominated for one the the major short fiction awards. I held of on those for the moment. Warcross looks like something we could add from the synopsis but it has no cover yet. I'll put it on my list and add it a month or two prior to the publication date.

Plus it's Lois McMaster Bujold!! That series qualifies as an exception to the normal criteria, because the first Novella in it was a Hugo Finalist.
I was hoping to get it into the WWEnd database last night (I've already bought it, and am looking forward to reading it, too), but didn't get the chance. If no one else does it first, I'll have it in for you about 24 hours from now. |

They will be added at a later date.
I prefer not to enter books too far ahead of the publication date. You'd be surprised how many books are not actually published on the announced date. The Ashby book for instance, was originally supposed to appear in November 2016. And don't even get me started on the mess Amazon makes of release dates.

The Legion of Regrettable Supervillians Thanks I'm going to be jumping on a couple of those myself. I really enjoyed Fortune's Nova, and the Helmreich and Lamb books sound really intriguing. I've pulled the synopsis, Kindle number, publishers, and dates for all these books. Tomorrow I'll fetch the covers. Several of them have new authors, so I'll have to get info for them as well, but I'll try to have these in for you within 48 hours. |

Could you please add the individual published novellas in Kristine Kathryn Rusch's Diving Universe series? I'm happy to do this, I love the series too. But... note that most of the novellas have also been incorporated into the novels and are not new material: Diving Into The Wreck
• Diving Into The Wreck
• The Room of Lost Souls City of Ruins
• Becoming One With The Ghosts Boneyards
• Stealth Skirmishes
• Strangers in the Room of Lost Souls
• Encounter on Starbase Kappa Standalone Novellas
Becalmed – story of Mavis (Mae) Kravchenko on Ukhanda
The Spires of Denon – story of Meklos Verr and Gabrielle Reese
The Application of Hope – story of Tori Sabin after Ivoire disappears |

| Abalone - 2017-03-25 12:05 PM Hello. I'm hoping these two books fit the criteria for inclusion here in your wonderful database: - Universal Harvester by John Darnielle
- Exit West by Mohsin Hamid
Thanks Hi Abalone, Is there a speculative element to either of these books? Amazon has classed the first as "Horror" and "Mystery, Thriller & Suspense" and the second as "Historical > Cultural Heritage" and "Political", and none of the reviews I checked for either of them mention anything speculative. Regards,
illegible |

| I have seen Exit West described as Magical Realism. A few quotes from The Guardian review of Exit West says
"Exit West, a novel about migration and mutation, full of wormholes and rips in reality"
"annexed to elements of magical realism and even The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe-style childrens storytelling. A normal door, Saeed and Nadias colleagues start to discuss, could become a special door, and it could happen without warning, to any door at all."
"Characters move through time and space like abrupt jump-cuts or skipping compact discs. "
It was also recommended on Tor as a Genre-Bender.
Universal Harvester is classed as horror. I thought Horror was allowed on here? Tor's review of it definitely says it belongs in the horror genre, as do many other reviews I have read. I don't think it is supernatural horror, but judging by the sub-genre's under horror on this site, all sorts of horror are allowed. From the reviews I have read I would say it could fit in psychological horror, or man-made horror, or possibly weird. Until I have actually read it I wont know exactly which sub-category of horror it fits best.

| Amazon isn't generally the best resource for making this sort of determination - they only show a limited number of classifications, and these are driven by marketing considerations. Goodreads tags, generated by readers who have actually read the book, are often a better indicator.
In the case of Hamid's Exit West, Goodreads' top tag is the generic Fiction, followed by Magical Realism and then Fantasy. So. it's pretty clear that this qualifies as a genre book.
Similarly, Darnielle's Universal Harvester is tagged first as Fiction, and secondly as Horror, so here again is a book that's pretty clearly genre. |

Similarly, Darnielle's Universal Harvester is tagged first as Fiction, and secondly as Horror, so here again is a book that's pretty clearly genre. It was my understanding from Admin that we include Horror with a supernatural or fantastical aspect, but not mundane Horror -- but I haven't been able to find the post saying that, so I'll point him at this thread. |

| I checked with Admin, and this is his response: Back in the day we allowed horror with a fantastical bent to be included as "dark fantasy" when we didn't include horror. We've been admitting all horror for some years now so anything that meets the usual requirements is good to go. |

Can someone put them in please? |

I have been looking at those International Women's Day stories. They are all very brief pieces so I was hoping Tor would bundle them into an anthology of sorts. They have done something like that on two earlier occasions. It doesn't look like it is happening though.

Since this is an anthology we only list the editor - not every contributing author. In this case it's not even a real book and there is not a single editor to give the credit to so I've assigned the "editor" as Uncredited. That seems the cleanest method to me. All the authors are listed in the synopsis with the story titles and if you'd like you can link their names to their author pages there. FYI: That last big batch of books put us over 23,000 books in the DB! Well done to everyone for all the great requests and a special thanks to our Ubers for giving us so much of their time and effort.

| I'd like to request to add to the database the book THE KINGS OF THE WYLD by Nicholas Eames published by Orbit Fantasy.
Here's a link to the Goodreads page for easy reference and an image.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/30841984-kings-of-the-wyld
I'm reading it now and it is outstanding and I understand why it's gotten so much positive buzz in the blog-o-sphere and with my mates at Fantasy Faction. It's once-in-a-decade type of great fantasy. It's the best fantasy I've read since discovering Jeff Salyards. But this is of a different mould - it's got great humor as well as action. |

| Two requests to add to the list (well more than two since they are series):
1) Jack L. Chalker's "The Quintara Marathon" trilogy: "Demons at Rainbow Bridge," 'Run to Chaos Keep," and "Ninety Trillion Fausts." One of my favorite series from the early 90s.
2) Janet Morris' fantasy "Silestra" quartet: "High Couch of Silestra," "The Golden Sword," "Wind From the Abyss," and "The Carnelian Throne." Great late 70s post-apocalyptic sword and sorcery tales with Boris Vallejo covers.
Thanks. |

Location: New Zealand | Hey Rhonda
Thanks for adding those books.
Regarding Flashmob and Julia Defiant - why do they need to be in ISFDB to be added to this database? ISFDB does not have every book and can be open to errors as it is very easy for anyone to sign up and add things. Publication information for both those books is easy enough to find in other sources, including the publishers websites.
Books are being added to this database all the time by other Ubers that are not in ISFDB. |

Publication information for both those books is easy enough to find in other sources, including the publishers websites. Books are being added to this database all the time by other Ubers that are not in ISFDB. Hi Weesam,I realize that ISFDB is also crowd sourced. When we started adding books a few years ago, Dave told us to use ISFDB as "the gold standard" for publishing info, etc. I have generally followed that advice, and found it helpful with many entries in the past, especially now that publisher are so complicated with subsidiaries and buy-outs. So, I generally wait to see what ISFDB says, and work from there. For example, I found two different publishers for one of those two books you asked for. I don't know if other Uber Users do that or not. Rhonda |

Location: New Zealand | Hi Rhonda, thanks for your reply. It is an interesting dilemma, and certainly I agree that publishing these days is very complicated.
I will point out that Laffer has requested a couple of books after me. Neither are in ISFDB. Both have been added. So this was not an issue for whoever added them.
Julia Defiant and Flashmob are now in ISFDB because I went and added them myself. So I guess they can be added here now?
I have been adding books to the ISFDB database for years, and I would never rely on it as my only source of information, although I do believe it is excellent or I wouldn't be bothering adding to it. The problem with it is that I add one edition. Others will come along and add other editions that they have. It builds up over time to an excellent resource. But for new and forthcoming releases like these two it isn't as good because it hasn't had time for hundreds of people to be adding all the information. If we were relying only on ISFDB I think we would have very few new releases in this database.
Thanks for your help |

If we were relying only on ISFDB I think we would have very few new releases in this database. Thanks for your help One of the things I like about ISFDB is that they check as much as possible with physical books. Especially for older works this is invaluable. Their database is by no means complete, but if they list an edition of a particular book you can be reasonably sure it exists.They tend to work about a month in advance for new releases, which is a bit less then we do. A lot of books we have already added are not in ISFDB yet.
For thesee new releases I tend to check multiple sources when I am not sure. Amazon is notoriously unreliable on just about everything from release dates to pagecount (which thankfully we don't need on WWend). Publisher and author websites are a good secondary source, as is locus (although that one has its issues too). The publisher of the previous book in the series can also be an indication but again not foolproof.
What can be especially confusing about publishers is the huge number of imprints some of them run. To give an example, ISFD lists 18 different Bantams and they are probably not the worst. Sometimes places like Amazon put them under the parent company, sometimes they don't. It can even differ between ebooks and dead tree even though the same company holds the rights. I'm reasonably sure we have quite a few books under the wrong imprint in the database. I can usually figure it out, but if it takes too long, especially with books that aren't released yet, I prefer to wait.

Location: New Zealand | Hey Valashain
I agree with everything you have said and I think all you Ubers do a marvelous job in getting books added to the database.
However my point is that I am being told that two new June releases cannot be added to the database because they are not in ISFDB and no other reason. As you have said for new releases in particular we sometimes need to look further afield for information. Clearly you are doing this and adding new release books to the database before they are in ISFDB. I don't understand why only the two books I have requested, Julia Defiant and Flashmob, are being subjected to this "only once they are in ISFDB" rule when the information on both can be found on the publishers websites - which you say you look for information on if they are not in ISFDB. I am not trying to make trouble, as I said, I believe you all do a fantastic job.
And as both books now meet the ISFDB rule, can they now be added here?
Thanks |

Julia Defiant by Catherine Egan
Flashmob by Christopher Farnsworth I've added these two. On rare occasions when the ISFDB has been slow to get books added, I check both Amazon US and UK (because it's common to have 2 different publishers in those countries), all versions (because it's not uncommon to have the e-book from a different imprint or publisher), and the publishers' websites to get complete Publisher information. For book entries like this and other issues (such as a Kindle number being really, really slow to make its appearance) I make a note in a file which I keep on my computer and periodically re-check for updates. |

The books are: The Life Engineered (2014), and A God in the Shed (2017).
The Life Engineered shows as published by Sword & Laser - but from what I can see, this is a part of Inkshares? It is certainly available on Inkshares website.

Location: behind the 4th wall | Eleanor Lerman has a new book ("The Stargazer's Embassy") that is scheduled for publication in July. It's published by a seemingly obscure tiny press - Mayapple - so I don't now if it's addable to the db (or if I'll be able to get my hands on a copy). http://mayapplepress.com/the-stargazers-embassy-eleanor-lerman/ Her novel "Radiomen" is one of my fav books of 2017 (so far), so I'm a bit excited about the new book!

Thank you to the Uber who added Graveyard Shift and Dr Potter's Medicine Show, however the synopsis are a bit messed up on these two.
I believe the synopsis on Graveyard Shift is for a Jack Chalker book collection, and the one on Dr Potter is for Piers Anthony's Anthology!
Was Devil's Call by J. Danielle Dorn able to go in, or was it just missed? |

I know they have a couple of titles in already but there is a whiff of self-publishing about it.

I don't know if this will help at all, but this link is writer JB Dubeau talking about what it means to publish through Inkshares. Not sure how you make the determination between self-publishing, traditional publishing, and all the other iterations in between these two, but hopefull this might help.

Location: Alief, TX | Hey there. Can we add a couple of things?
Friends of the Horseclans - edited by Robert Adams
Tempus Unbound - Chris and Janet Morris
The Strange Journey's of Colonel Polders - Lord Dunsany
Just a thought. As we continue to add series and media tie-ins and such, there was a long series of around 40 Conan novels written in the 80s and early 90s. Authors included John Maddox Roberts, Steve Perry, Roland Green, Leonard Carpenter, John C. Hocking, Robert Jordan, and Sean A. Moore. I wonder if these might be coming up soon on the agenda. There are also a few earlier Conan novels out there by Andrew Offutt, Karl Edward Wagner, and Poul Anderson.

I put volume two on the list and will check in a few weeks to see if I can find more then.

If the author isn't in an you feel he meets the criteria for inclusion you can just request titles. I will create an author record when I add them. We're not as well stocked in horror as we are in SF and F so if you dive into that genre you might come across a few missing authors.

A lot of those horror novels were butchered by the publisher editors and I don't think many of them had any say in the title used. Quite a few of them were later republished as the author's preferred text and title. Happened to a bunch of early Koontz novels for instance.

I think it was the ghost out for revenge that lead me to believe it would fit here. The description of the book from Patrick Ness' website says:
Its Saturday, its summer and, although he doesnt know it yet, everything in Adam Thorns life is going to fall apart. But maybe, just maybe, he'll find freedom from the release. Time is running out though, because way across town, a ghost has risen from the lake...
Also, on Goodreads most people reading it are categorising it under such things as: Magical-Realism, Fantasy, and Ghosts.

| Nice list!
I really loved the John Boyne, a sublime haunted house novel.
And also dug the Peter James, in a trashy way.
I did read the Grey and the Siddons but didn't really do much for me.
Though, I'd be very interested in your other haunted house reading. I think you must have pretty good taste in that area.

And maybe this one, if you think it fits: An Excess Male by Maggie Shen King
It's in.
As a book in the vein of The Handmaid's Tale, it's a no brainer. It sounds like these two should sit side by side on the shelf.

Release by Patrick Ness
I relooked at this book, going to the author's web site and what not. A ghost out for revenge? The goodreads categories I see are GLB, contemporary, young adult. It's like we're looking at different books, but not. Very strange. Anyway....
If this is like Hamlet's father, a ghost that has a role to play and lines to speak, then, fine. Sure.
But if it's like mentioning a ghost as casually as one mentions that person on the street corner, as a back ground detail of the narrative structure. and little else, then I'd say, does it really fit any of our categories? Doubtful, to my mind at least. Give it a read and shoot me an email. If you still think it does fit with what we're doing, It'll get added.

I guess, if everyone around you is functionally immortal as well, then it's no big deal. The trouble comes from mixing one mortal into the immortal mix, or one immortal into the the mortal mix.
