Unreported is still unofficial. It needs to be nominated in the thread for the nominations.

Under the Dome is not available in Australia, unless you buy a pbook, and I don't read pbooks for pleasure.

Trouble is, it's blooming expensive. The cheapest I've been able to find it is £13 (about $20) at Waterstones. If you know of a cheaper source that's available to non-US buyers, please do let us know!

A Fire Upon The Deep...
Wonderfully written piece of work, a terrific piece of imagination, and brilliant characterizations... You will not be disappointed. Heeler. |

I have an audible account and downloaded and started listening to Under the Dome. I really dont believe I can even finish it....which is quite rare for me. I read before I bought it that the violence was lighter in this book, and focused more on the story line. Ok, that was Wrong. It is a weakness of mine that I cant tolerate watching or reading about that level of violence. So just a warning for any others that might be "wussy" like me. lol.
