January 23rd, 2018 01:59 pm - FMK #35: Sword & Sorcery
Last week's F winner was "We Didn't Mean To Go To Sea", so I guess I will be finding out if I still like Swallows & Amazons. The most K votes was Hatchet with six, but Hatchet also had a lot of M and F votes, and actually nothing had a K majority last week - the closest was Anna Smudge with 4 F, 1 M, and 5 K.

My excuse for not reading anything this week is that I've been reading various translation of the Tao Te Ching instead, because Star Wars reasons. [Back me up, people: the world does not need an edition of the Force Powers Codex that has the translation produced by Finn, Rey, Threepio, and Ghost!Luke (which translates 道 as "Force") parallel with the translation produced by Artoo, BB8, Poe, and Ghost!Han (which translates 道 as "this shit we're talking about")]

Anyway, this week, in honor of Jedi Knights: Sword & Sorcery!

How FMK works, short version: I am trying to clear out my unreads. So there is a poll, in which you get to pick F, M, or K. F means I should spend a night of wild passion with the book ASAP, and then decide whether to keep it or not. M means I should continue to commit to a long-term relationship of sharing my bedroom with it. K means it should go away immediately. Anyone can vote, you don't have to actually know anything about the books.

I pick a winner on Friday night (although won't actually close the poll, people can still vote,) and report results/post the new poll on the following Tuesday, and write a response to the F winner sometime in the next week.

Link to long version of explanation (on first poll)

Poll: Boyer, Bulmer, Camp, Carter, Cook, Fox, Hambly, Howard, McCulley, Shahar, Stasheff, Stirling, Wrede, Zelazny )
