Can someone add from Sarah Crichton Books (an imprint of Farrar, Straus and Giroux)
The Great Forgetting by James Renner (2015)
The Ghost in Love by Jonathan Carroll (2007)

Also, if you are still adding tie-in novels, could someone add Torchwood. There are 19 novels altogether.


These are all in.


Wow, you're awesome. Even though I know you guys are quick, I didn't expect you to be that quick. Thanks.

First of all, thanks so much for all the adds. As a Goodreads librarian I know it was a deluge there.

@ montsamu:

Did you really read Delaney's Through the Valley of the Nest of Spiders? It's one of the few books I've given up on. I'd read his other (non-genre) hardcore gay porn books (The Tides of Lust and Hogg), but after having read 200 pages of Spiders, I decided I just wasn't interested in reading the next 600 pages. Delaney certainly has a fixation with various bodily fluids and substances...


I did. It didn't make me want to go pick up Tides of Lust or Hogg any time soon or anything; I found some of the prose just gorgeous -- again, that line about the stars pinning up the darkness of the sky that, just, wow. I am set to re-read a bunch of Delany that I haven't in years (Babel 17, Dhalgren, Nova) in the next few months, and I don't think I'll be re-reading TVNS any time soon or anything, but I do think it was a very good book. (Happy to take any further conversation out of the "add a book" thread, though!)

Can we add the rest of the Twelve Planets anthologies? Love and Romanpunk is already included, but I didn't include it.

Nightsiders by Sue Isle
Thief of Lives by Lucy Sussex
Bad Power by Deborah Biancotti
Showtime by Narrelle M Harris
Through Splintered Walls by Kaaron Warren
Cracklescape by Margo Lanagan
Asymmetry by Thoraiya Dyer
Caution: Contains Small Parts by Kirstyn McDermott
Secret Lives by Rosaleen Love
The Female Factory by Lisa L. Hannett and Angela Slatter
Cherry Crow Children by Deborah Kalin


These are all in. I made them into one series too.


Thanks for adding all these!

Hey guys. I'm looking for a couple of Philip K. Dick novels, specifically Cantata-140 and The Man Whose Teeth Were All Exactly Alike.

Also, could we possibly finish out the Dumarest series by E.C. Tubb?

Thanks!

Cantata-140 is already there (alternate title: A Crack In Space).

The Man Whose Teeth Were All Exactly Alike is non-genre.

Some co-written requests:

Katherine Kurtz & Deborah Turner Harris Adept books
The Adept
The Lodge of the Lynx
Templar Treasure
Dagger Maggic
Death of an Adept

Liaden books by Sharon Lee & Steve Miller

Also question: how are you handling omnibus editions? For example NK Jemisin's Inheritance Trilogy includes all of it, including the new novella. Should I just mark them as owned separately or?

Omnibus editions can be added. I don't routinely do so if we have the individual books in there but the site is equipped to handle it and we have a bunch in the database already.

Gimme a sec and I'll get these added.

Great and thanks! And yes, that was a reason I didn't try to list them all.

I put in 21 Liaden universe books. The series has quite a convoluted publication history so I decided to stick with the ISFDB way of ordering them. Baen takes a different approach.

I should have all the important stuff but have a look if anything you want is missing.

I checked the Lee/Miller books and everything looks fine, except Dragon in Exile seems to have Dragon Ship's cover.

My bad on that one.  It's fixed now.

Hello everyone. I have a book request:

Justin Richards - Doctor Who: Time Lord Fairy Tales

There is a lot of Doctor Who stuff in the database already but that particular book fits well into my Sub-Genre Challenge (I'm doing fairytale fiction) and is nowhere to be found yet. If you have some time, could you please add it? Thanks in advance, you are awesome!

Here I was thinking I would need to add another huge subseries. This one doesn't seem to belong to any subset of Doctor Who though. It is in.
