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."

P-C, that's very cool.
My favorite bookstore is having a cheapie-cheap used book sale this weekend, so I picked up 8 books for $12:
Sea-Cat and Dragon King, Angela Carter
In Patagonia, Bruce Chatwin
Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats, T.S. Eliot
My Father's Dragon, Ruth Gannett
Elmer and the Dragon, Ruth Gannett
The Dragons of Blueland, Ruth Gannett
The Westing Game, Ellen Raskin
Borderland, ed. Terri Windling and Mark Alan Arnold
The Angela Carter book was a real find; I'd never even heard of it before. It's a kids' picture book. And I was psyched to find a copy of Borderland too. Aren't there a bunch more Borderland anthologies out there? And doesn't Micole have a story in one of them? I think the one I got is the first one, but I'm not sure.

love's a dream you enter though I shake and shake and shake you
My Father's Dragon, Ruth Gannett
This is one of my favorite books in the world. I have my Dad's old copy, and I cherish it.

Jen, isn't it great? My dad read it to my brother and me when we were young.
And who doesn't love The Westing Game?
Hmm. Possibly I should finish one of the, um, nine books I'm currently in the middle of before starting another...

Yes, and a fantastic Borderland novel by Emma Bull.
And doesn't Micole have a story in one of them?
Really? Neat!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Jilli! Is it really reallly you?

Yes, and a fantastic Borderland novel by Emma Bull.
And two fun Borderland novels by Will Shetterly.
She does, Jilli, in the last one, The Essential Bordertown. It's quite good.

I can't even.

Love Borderland. (See Boyett ravings previous, his story was the scene setter in the first anthology).

How cool! And of course, I'm AFB, so I can't just go look to guess which one. But, I have google.

Thanks for the link, JSw. Looks like I got the second anthology, not the first. Should I wait to read the first before starting the second, or does the order not matter so much?
