Location: UK		Can you please add The Snow by Adam Roberts?

I just bought a used paperback copy and it seems to be good fit for the End of the World RYO.

Please add
"Engraved on the Eye" collection of short stories by Saladin Ahmed
"Compass Rose" short stories by Ursula Le Guin
"Days of Blood and Starlight" Laini Taylor sequel to Daughter of Smoke and Bone

These can potentially fit on several RYO challenges. Thanks!

Location: CA		Hey Dusty, it looks like you've filled all of the available spots. You will have to first remove on of the books on your list then you may notice that the option to add returns.

Hope that this helps resolve your problem.

Cheers,
O.

Location: Beaverton, Oregon, USA		Can you fix the entry for James Blish's "Black Easter: The Day After Judgement"? There were actually two books, "Black Easter or Faust Aleph-Null", which was nominated for the Nebula, and a sequel "The Day After Judgement". The two were combined in one volume called "The Devil's Day".

Thanks!

Right you are!  I've fixed the entry and I'll get The Day After Judgement added later.  Thanks for the heads up.

Could the works of Chanda Hahn, "The Iron Butterfly" and "The Steele Wolf" be added? She has 3 other books, also. They are fantasy and, I suspect, actually targeted at the YA market. I started The Iron Butterfly, thinking it would fit into the Women of Genre Fiction challenge but it is not in the database.

Thanks!

Another request for an author addition: Morgan Rice, author of The Sorcerer's Ring series: "A Quest of Heroes", "A March of Kings", "A Feast of Dragons", "A Clash of Honor", "A Vow of Glory", "A Charge of Valor" and so on? I know there are other series by this author; this set is fantasy.

Thanks!

Location: Virginia		Like to see Brandon Sanderson's Words of Radiance and Steelheart, and he has a few more books as well. Since he is a popular writer, it may be nice to flush out his list of works in the WWE database.

Location: The Wilds of Washington		Brain Herbert and Anderson are at it again. Their latest is Mentats of Dune. Another one to add to the ever expanding pile. I think if you've gotten all of their Dune books in Hardcover, they'd fill a banker box by now.

Location: Beaverton, Oregon, USA		Can you add "The Steel Remains" by Richard K Morgan? This is the first book in his Land Fit For Heroes trilogy. You have the second book, but are missing the first. I'll be reading it for the RYO: LGBT Challenge. Thanks!

Actually, I just saw DrNefrio's name on the list and realized he could have done it himself.

Dave - Is there a list of books to add? It would save time having to scroll back work out and dig them out. If we assume that if the people who requested them are Uber Adders they will add them themselves then we only have to worry about the others.

There's a thread in the Uber User forum with the running list I was using.  It's not complete but it's got a couple hundred books on it to get you started.

Location: SC, USA		Dusty, the uber users were given the power to add books earlier in the week. We can add book records as long as the author and the publisher are already in WWE. Dave is coming behind us adding images. That's the reason that some are blank. So far we've added almost 200 books. We've added a lot from the lists and some from our own personal wish lists we are still organizing our efforts, making lists from this thread and then making lists of what we could not add and why. Dwl28, If you scroll down on the home page, you will see the icons of the recent additions. To the right, you will see a clickable "More". That will show you a scrollable page of new additions.
