Can someone please add these books?

Tomorrow and Tomorrow by Thomas Sweterlitsch
The Atlantis Gene by A. G. Riddle

Thanks!

Tomorrow and Tomorrow by Thomas Sweterlitsch has been added.

Riddle looks suspiciously selfpublished to me so I'm gonna say no to that one for now.

Actually, The Lost Fleet ended at book 6 when they got home.
The Lost Fleet Beyond the Frontier books are a new series, so these are books 1-4 of a separate series.

Thanks for that correction, controuble. I haven't read any Jack Campbell, so I did not know that.

Aaaaannnnd... looking at Jack Campbell's listing , I see that all 4 books are already there, down below the first 6.

(coughs like Emily Litella) Never mind.

Thanks for the recommendation! I'll add them to the manifest.

At the rate I'm going (adding 2 books for every 1 I get read) I should get to them sometime in 2017.

I'll be working on that list over the next few days, Illegible. The Amazon/Hachette dispute makes things complicated, though, and I don't like adding stuff with "expected" publication dates (because if publication is delayed then we could have an erroneous entry in the DB).

Memory of Water is already in the DB -- are there problems looking it up?

If you search for "Memory of Water", you find it. If you search for "Itaranta", as I did, you don't. Hmmm. I guess it's because of the diaeresis. My bad.

I've just finished adding all the missing images. Thanks very much to out Uber Users for keeping up the great work and thanks to all our members for the new book requests! We just passed 9,000 books on the site! I think I'm going to have a beer over that little milestone. In fact, I mean to have 2. Cheers, everyone!

Can I get the Best of Connie Willis added for the short fiction challenge? I noticed there's the SF Masterworks UK edition, but I don't know if the US version is different enough?

The UK and the USA editions are exactly the same except for the introduction (by Willis in the USA version and by Tuttle in the UK version) and a slight difference in title. Otherwise, the stories, pagination, etc. are exactly the same. I've changed the title to Time Is the Fire: The Best of Connie Willis aka The Best of Connie Willis - hopefully this will clarify things, even thought the title looks like a bit of a muddle now.

Ah, thanks for the clarification. I didn't know what was or wasn't different about each.
