I will be surprised if the List fits on one webpage when finished. ;P
I'm currently rereading Dune (always fun to see what passages were marked when I read it in more formative years), and I'm planning on following the rest of the series after. The prequels were pretty good, but mostly just an exercise in expanding the world, and fleshing out origin stories.
Yes! Finally. Granted, most of this has been on one or more scraps of paper lying around my house for the past year or so, but still, I'm glad you put it up. Which reminds me - I finally read Ender's Game. A girl I used to babysit gave it to me over Thanksgiving break, and I enjoyed it much. Can I take the bright red paint that says "read Ender's Game or die" down now?
