  • Lounge, The Re: Vote For Top-100 Science Fiction, Fantasy Titles

    Some odd ones on that list though. 1632 by Eric Flint is entertaining, but I'd hardly include it on a top 100 list of anything. I also never really considered ...

    The first six lines are great. The imagery and descriptions used work perfectly to convey a scene of a mother suddenly left breathless. However, what I really like about is ...
