    I pick "Bloodstone" and the great "Nightwings"! And I feel obliged to point out that you can bring 10,000 alternates if you packed a fully-stocked Kindle ...

      That Kindle will surely be coming as well, but I figured this as a good excuse to chip away at a few paperbacks on my shelf as well!

    I choose Heinlein & Burroughs. 2 of my all time favorites. If you like Burroughs, I strongly recommend Outlaw of Torn.

    Bloodstone!!! (and I'd love to hear your thoughts on Methuselah's Children)

    Bloodstone, by the batrachian Rillyti of Kranor-Rill!

    All sound like excellent selections. I would choose Methuselah's Children and Nightwings.
    I hope you enjoy your vacation! Save travels!

    The Haldeman and Silverberg. How can you go wrong?

    I'm too late for your vacation, but I have to comment anyway. You need to run, not walk, to your nearest bookstore and get some more Heinlein. If you can find a copy of *Expanded Universe* grab it and don't let anyone see it--I can't find one anywhere! If you're not hooked by then, well, hang it up. I can't save you.
    And I just found you, so this may be redundant, but get some Asimov. The last Foundation book he wrote (I'm wracking my brain for the title, but can't come up with it; it's about the start of the Foundation) has a list of what order to read his books in. If you haven't read them, you'll thank me.
    And if you want a book that seems silly at first, but is the best book on leadership I've ever read, grab *Phule's Company* by Robert Asprin.
    Again I've just found you, so maybe you've read these already, but if you haven't, consider these for your TBR list.

    Have a great time in Florida mate. I really enjoyed Camouflage when I read it. I'm on a mission to read more Haldeman too before the year's end. Looking forward to your thoughts on these books.

      I need a whole lot more Haldeman on my shelf. I'm hoping to find a good set of the Marsbound trilogy at some point to give that series a shot!

    I vote for the Heinlein and the Haldeman!

    • @DavidWiley7
      @DavidWiley7  8 місяців тому

      I bet that would make for a great pairing by two outstanding authors!

    Bloodstone!

      I was pretty certain about where your vote would fall!

    Florida. Flying fish, yes. Humming birds, yes, Mosquitoes, no. Alligators, no.

      I'm hoping we miss all sightings of those last two items. With you 100% there.
