I can do the missing Locus shortlist books. If you've vetted the publishers and found all the relevant images, then most of the hard work has been done already ;-)

Sorry for the double post. I got an internal server error on the first one but looks like it posted after all.

Thanks.

I've added this one as The Mammoth Book of Classic Fantasy based on the information from ISFDB:
http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/title.cgi?1075097
I've included A Treasury... as an alternate title.

Could I get The Dangers of Smoking in Bed by Mariana Enriquez? I don't see it in the ISFDB yet, but her previous collection - Things We Lost in the Fire, is currently indexed on WWE.

Please add "Civilizations" by Laurent Binet.

The cover for the English version hasn't been released yet, but the author and his previous work The 7th Function of Language have been entered.

If you post a reminder here once the Civilizations cover is available, we'll get it added for you.

The cover for this has now been released and the book has been added to the database.

Please add Title: The Lost Boy: A Reporter at Large Author: Maureen F. McHugh

Hi Hneite,

This short story has been published in two anthologies, but it is neither available as a print single nor published online to read for free, nor has it been published in a "Best Of" anthology, so it falls outside the guidelines for works to be entered into the database.

Surprised this isn't in the database, as it is mentioned in the author's blurb:

Sliver by Ira Levin

It's not in the database because it's not a genre book. It's about a creep who spies on people in his building with hidden cameras and microphones. It has no fantastical or speculative elements.

finminer, thanks for mentioning Levin's bio. It was just a list of his books, so I've updated it to be a brief biography instead.
