Tales of the Witch World
Lore of the Witch World

Location: Alief, TX		Feeling Mike Mignola/Helboy, and there is so little in the data base.

We have the original Baltimore book, but there are five graphic novels also. Would also be nice to see the Jenny Finn graphic novel, the five Abe Sapien graphic novels, and of course the 12 Hellboy graphic novels.

Also, Mignola and Golden did another work like Baltimore, a large illustrated hardcover called Joe Golem and the Drowning City. The also did another novel, called Father Gaetano's Puppet Catechism.

Finally, there have been a series of Hellboy novels. One, by Mark Chadbourn, is in the database. Here are the others:

The Bones of Giants - Christopher Golden
The Dragon Pool - Christopher Golden
The Lost Army - Christopher Golden
On Earth As It Is In Hell - Brian Hodge
The Fire Wolves - Tim Lebbon
Unnatural Selection - Tim Lebbon
The All-Seeing Eye - Mark Morris
Emerald Hell - Tom Piccirilli
The God Machine - Thomas Sniegoski
Odd Jobs - short story collection edited by Cristopher Golden
Odder Jobs
Oddest Jobs

I know it's a lot, but since I'm seeing more graphic novels entered, I thought it was time we give Mignola his due. Thanks guys.

Location: Alief, TX		Oh, and one more thing. ;-)

I see we've recently added more of Spider Robinson's Callahan's series. There are still three more not in the system:

Callahan's Legacy
Callahan's Key
Callahan's Con

And whoever added the other ones listed Off the Wall at Callahan's as series #7. It's actually out of continuity, could better be listed as maybe a #0.

And the first three were collected in an omnibus edition titled The Callahan Chronicles, which is how I read them.

Location: The Netherlands		I added the Norton books but I'm out of time for today. Maybe one of the other users has time to have a look at the rest. If not I'll see what i can do tomorrow. I'll have a look at those other two Tales of the Witch World anthologies then too.

Location: Middle TN, USA		Added the rest of the Callahan books, fixed off the wall and added two other missing in database, Night of Power and The Free Lunch. I still have anthologies and collections to do,but they are just to intimidating to do today with only 3 hours of sleep!

Angel of Darkness is now in. I'm going to go with the ISFDB's take on the Holmes book that it's none genre (not what we cover) so if someone else wants to add it, that's their prerogative.

Location: Austria		Hello everyone,

could you add Laura Ruby's book "Bone Gap" to the database?
I know it doesn't look like it but it is definitely fantasy and I need it for one of my RYO challenges.
Thanks in advance!

13,000!  We were just celebrating 12k at the end of April so that gives you a good idea of how fast these books are going in.  Thanks to all our Uber Users for the excellent work and to all our members for keeping the requests coming in.

Location: New Zealand		Can someone add The Silver Kings by Stephen Deas. It is the last book in the Silver Kings series. The others are already in.

Also, anticipating the release of Ernest Clines new book, Armada, next month, it is possible to get it in now?

Thanks

Armada is now in. From the synopsis, it sounds like an update of the Last Starfighter movie/book/concept.
(I once heard that movie people in the industry think of Last Starfighter as a guilty pleasure.)
I'll be looking forward to a review or two once it comes out.

If The Cream of the Jest has a synopsis on the back could you message it to me? I can't seem to find one that isn't all about the author.
