March Nominations and Vote

Postby Redag » Tue Jan 19, 2010 12:39 am

Which of these titles should we read for March 2010?
"For the Culture to continue without terminal decadence, the point needs to be made, regularly, that its easy hedonism is not some ground-state of nature, but something desirable, assiduously worked for in the past, not necessarily easily attained, and requiring appreciation and maintenance both in the present and the future."

An early lead! Justina and I are really tight, you know. I wish. Maybe.

Readers,
I would like to devote some time aside during Saturday's discussion for the Spinrad WorldSF epic fail.

Psst, Allan, there's a topic for the actual event, this is the moribund voting thread.
