On the subject of Harry Turtledove, those of us from the San Fernando Valley love the everloving hell out of The Case of the Toxic Spell Dump, which is set in a reasonably contemporary alternate Los Angeles/Orange County.

I like Saberhagen’s swords. I have them in three SFBC volumes, and bring them out every few years to read again. I will never read them again without thinking of that alternate title!

Zimmer-Bradley’s Camelot was fascinating the first time I read it (I have NO idea how long ago it was, but it was a *really* long time), I totally loved it. The second time was a little less so, I couldn’t put my finger on why. It was a few years before I picked it up again, and by that time Morgaine was just a sniveling self-centered brat. The book was just not believable anymore.

Love the Drizzt books, have no idea who Elric is. Loved some Turtledove, then found out that the vast majority of his books are about war, war, and more war. I really liked the alternative history.

The Twilight one’s not very funny; sure, the books aren’t well-written and I say that as someone who likes them, but the other ones actually make fun of something in the contents of the book.

Even “Mary Sue Dates a Vampire” would have been funnier.

The rest of them are awesome!

Oh gods I can’t breathe I’m giggling so hard… Mercedes Lackey is one of my guilty pleasures, and that cover just about sums up nearly everything she’s ever written.

…I’m pushing 40. But sometimes even middle aged moms need to sit down with something fluffy to go with the pint of double chocolate Haagen Daaz.

Something besides a chick-flick, that is. Because, ew.

Hugh Cook? Oh god. “The Waffle and the Watchamacallit.” “The Window and the Wayback Machine.” “The Woodrow and the Wilson.”

Turtledove may be a pretty big hack, but through his writing he has answered one of the fundamental questions which has plagued philosophers for centuries, namely: What the hell are you supposed to DO with a degree in Byzantine history, anyhow?
