Friadoc said:I loved Dies the Fire, The Protector's War, and A Meeting at Corvallis, all three of which I just read this past winter, thanks to the Sci-fi Book Club.
Not only can't I wait for the next series of books to come out, set 25 years after 'The Change', but I'm planning on buying the Nantucket series here, too.
Twowolves said:I don't see why so many here seem to like S.M. Sterling. I read Dies the Fire and just hated it. Massive internal inconsistancies, infinately improbable luck, lots of religion bashing (and fawning over the author's fave), and page after page of droning on and on about.... food. It was so bad, by the time I was halfway finished with the book, I knew I could skip about 3 pages every time the characters sat down to a meal.
Friadoc said:I think it'd be hard having such a niche message board, however depending on what all it added, as well as it's full intent, a site devoted to the topic could be easily done.
Whisperfoot said:So the question is simply this:
(1) do you enjoy playing, reading, or watching games, books or movies in the post apocalyptic genre?
Whisperfoot said:(2) If I were to setup a messageboard dedicated mostly to post apocalyptic gaming, how many of you would be likely to join and visit regularly?
