Hello! When you have time can you please add David Weber's "The Service of the Sword", "Changer of Worlds," and "Beginnings" please? They're in the sequence for me to read in the Honor Harrington series now and I'd like to do them as part of my Space Opera challenge books this year. Thanks!

Whoa, I don't know how we managed to not have the Worlds of Honor subseries in the database yet; I've even read that series.

I'll get those in for you.

I get lots of TBRs from Scalzi's "The Big Idea" as well. I remember really disliking Stone's Hugo-nominated novelette a few years ago, but my library has this new novel on order, and the synopsis sounds interesting, so I'm going to check it out.

This is in. Happy reading!

May I request Winter by Marissa Meyer to be added to the database? The rest of the series is already here but the last instalment is missing and I just finished reading it.

Maybe you could add Fairest also while you're at it? It's a prequel to the same series.

Thanks in advance!

Then I come to find out that short fiction is being added to the site.  (You guys just keep getting better and better.)  I would like to suggest the addition of a fantasy short story by Leckie: The Nalendar. http://uncannymagazine.com/article/nalendar/

This one is in.

A general note on requesting short fiction. It takes just as much time to add a short story as it does the add a novel so please stick to what's relevant at the moment. Stuff you need for challenges, stuff you want to review. If someone were to ask for the complete works of Poul Anderson I'd be at it till doomsday and there are short fiction writers out there who are even more prolific.

Location: UK		I wonder if you could add the Newbery Medal winner children's book Mrs Frisby and the Rats of NIMH,by Robert C O'Brien to the site. It does have some light ties to SF,or could be classed as fantasyand I am so enjoying it on several challenges I am doing,and its just good fun.When widowed mouse Mrs Frisby needs helpto save her sick son she is directed to some super intelligent rats for their help. It all starts off like a homage to Beatrix Potter,could have been written in the 20s,then suddenly it is revealed that these were lab rats,injected with DNA that helped them develop their intelligence, size and strength,so that they escaped,which brings us up past the 70s when it was written into todays experiments. I am loving it,and hope you can pass it as suitable for the site

It's in ISFDB, so no problem. Good solid fantasy. The first of the series is in. I'll get the rest in, too.

It's book four of a series, so the whole series has wandered its way into the database.
Undoubtedly lost, they can find a place to stop right here.

Could you add the three books in Kate Mosse's "Languedoc" series? They are "Labyrinth", "Sepulchre", and "Citadel".
Also, Melissa Scott and Jo Graham have a new book in their "Order of the Air" series, "Oath Bound".
Could you also add Genevieve Gogman's "The Invisible Library" (published in the UK last year, due here this summer) and "The Wrath and the Dawn" by Renee Ahdieh? Thanks much.

The Invisible Library is already in the WWEnd DB, as is its sequel, The Masked City. I've read them both, and they're fantastic.
