Actually, the link above is only to the second book of a bunch of anthologies and 3 novels that I have been planning to read for a long time. I finally got this one book (from a Goodwill in Seattle!) last week because it has never been reissued in ebook form.

Most of these are short stories and the order is here at their own dedicated website: https://www.thebordertownseries.com/s...

The order actually is (I believe)

Borderland
Bordertown
Life on the Border
Elsewhere. -- novel
Nevernever. -- novel
Finder --novel -- (by Emma Bull, an author I have liked before)
The Essential Bordertown (not out in ebook)
Welcome to Bordertown

Elsewhere, NeverNever and Finder are novels, all others are short story anthologies with different authors participating.

Anyway, I plan to do this next year whether anyone joins me or not. Plus, they say that you can start anywhere. So I suppose that means you could skip the novels if you wanted.

Let me know if there are any participants, and I will set a more formal schedule. If not, I will do it on my own. I am expecting to fit these books in around the others that I will be reading next year, and I doubt that I will start before next year.

Discuss? I would particularly like your opinions if you have read some of these. Apparently they are an underground sensation.

Sounds good. I will put on my calendar sometime in January. I need to get "The Laundry Files" dates firmed up first
