I'll second the Twelve by Cronin. I really liked the first one.
I'm also awaiting Winter, the sequel to Fall of Giants by Follet. I hadn't read Fall of Giants, being disappointed with reviews, but I am anxious to see reviews for Winter. If there is a general uptick from Fall of Giants, I'll probably read both. |

How could Winter be a Fall book? Now I'm really confused.

Anyway. I am waiting to read Robert B. Parker's Fool Me Twice (Jesse Stone #11), which is due out mid-Sept. Is that Summer or Fall? I know not, and care less. |

I find the collective lack of respect for equinoxes and solstices in this thread alarming—not to mention slightly appalling.

March, April, May: Spring June, July, August: Summer September, October, November: Autumn (OK, "Fall", if you insist.) December, January, February: Winter As for me - I'm looking forward to 1635: The Papal Stakes in September Captain Vorpatril's Alliance in October and Darkship Renegades in December. But not I must stop looking at the Baen ebooks sites, or my TBR list will balloon impossibly. Perhaps in January I'll splash out a bit. Last edited by pdurrant; 08-30-2012 at 07:31 AM. |

And I quote from one article "The start of winter—the winter solstice—is the shortest day of the year, when the Sun reaches its most southern point in the sky at local noon." Last edited by orlok; 08-30-2012 at 07:35 AM. |

Doesn't matter, the world ends on December 21st anyway. I've chartered a flight to the planet Mongo. I'm taking the black-and-white version piloted by Buster Crabbe and propelled by buzzing sparklers.
