Hello WWE Team!

I'm new to the forums here and I have a couple requests for you when you have the time:

Paul J McAuley's Confluence Trilogy:
Child of the River
Ancients of Days
Shrine of Stars

And could you add the individual books from Mary Gentle's Ash series:
A Secret History
Carthage Ascendant
The Wild Machines
Lost Burgundy

Thanks so much!

These are in. Not sure on the tags. Someone else can contribute that.

Garlick is in.

I'm calling pager snob on the two Franklin books.
The same for the series by Underwood.
We don't do, yet, ebook only works.

The Green book seems to bend the boundary, probably no more than King, so I stuck it in horror. Please keep an eye on the SF, Fantasy, Horror roots that we try to stay true to when asking for books to be added.

The Connolly book is almost self-published, sort-of, may-be (not). It's on the boundary too, but I put it in. Self-pub is another no-no.

I'm reading this because it contains a work by one of my favorite SF authors. It definitely fits in our genres. (Hey - I'm beginning to think of WWEnd as 'us' ) I know we don't generally list anthologies, except in the Books Published by Year database. But it's not there. The Thackery T. Lambshead Cabinet of Curiosities was published in 2011.

Very true.  You can see anthologies in the DB by using the recently added Books Published by Year WWEnd List.  For example, there are currently 53 anthologies from last year in the db!  Currently, you can only view one year at a time, but perhaps that will change at some point.

Now I realize that there are anthologies here. The last one I read was Again, Dangerous Visions. It was here.

I'm sure the rest are forthcoming.  I've got the images ready for the whole series when they do go in.

Weesam, the Monk books are in. There's actually nine in the Allie Beckstrom sereis.

Bleebs, I put Auel up for discussion in the uberuser forum. I'm not entirely sure about those.
