Just wondered if any of you guys were aware of the existence of this website.

The link is: http://www.farris.co.uk/books/

Its pretty cool. You can vote for you favorite authors (as many as you like but it knows if you vote for the same person twice from the same PC) and rate any of the books on there (hundreds). Oh. And if an authors book isn't on there, you can add it to their list as well.

I thought maybe you guys who were doing all those opinion polls earlier might be interested in the lists of top rated books and authors.

Also, all those Perdido fans in the woodwork (!), i notice Mieville is WAY down the list of authors people have voted for, so perhaps you guys should get in there and fix it, else those people who use this site to decide whether or not or what to buy may miss out!

Anyway. I like this site a lot, and I thought maybe some of you might too. Lemme know what you think, yeah! (No. I'm not being encouraged to plug this - I realise it sounds that way, reading this back, but i ain't changing it now!)

Yeah, its a nice site. I visit it quite often because it has good reading suggestions. The recommended author section is good too. My two favorite authors are #1 and #2 on the list - J.R.R. Tolkien and G.R.R. Martin. Gotta move Mieville higher up though.

(Matt makes a note to change his middle initials to 'R.R.' if his book gets to the point of publishing)

Perdido fans of the world - or woodwork - UNITE!

Oh, boy, we'll be needing another 200 votes to get Mieville up there http://www.sffworld.com/ubb/redface.gif

WHAT!?? Matt Stover 1 VOTE!! FF, Neologik: We have GOT to do something about this!
