Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I think Buffy people would also like Amy's Cold Kiss.

I was just thinking about Firefly last night and how I generally don't like space or westerns, but I like Firefly, and when I try to think of something like it I come up with nothing. I think people in general would think of recommending other space-type things.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm always looking for places to recommend Lois McMaster Bujold but wasn't sure which fandom I thought she'd best mesh with. Librarian friend suggested Firefly, which...maybe?

Star Trek?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Maybe the Expanse novels: also a small crew of a ship with space adventues. (James S.A. Corey.)

The Rocinante crew doesn't map exactly onto the Serenity crew, but they're strongly reminiscent.

I think of the Vorkosigan novels as their own fandom, so I can't easily map them onto another one. Doctor Who, maybe?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I think Buffy people would also like Amy's Cold Kiss.

Oooh, I concur.

As I note in my Hilbrow piece today, Game of Thrones fans would like Fritz Leiber.

In fact, if you've ever thought, "Damn, they totally should've hooked up Brieth and Arya to tromp around and get into trouble and snark at each other" then that's basically a gender-swapped version of Fafhrd and the Grey Mouser.

How about the Vorkosigan novels for Babylon 5 fandom?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I kinda want to say Leverage.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Lumberjanes.

You should read Lumberjanes if you are a fan of...anything?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Hell yes.

I suspected as much.
