Nope. One of the things I would hope for here is a chance to try a different author. Obviously, in the case of
Longitude, that won't be a new author for me, but I would hope to introduce it to others. As for Roach? Yes, we'd probably enjoy it, but I'd far rather read Neil DeGrasse Tyson's book, frankly. However, this isn't really the place to be touting our choices, except to get them to the next round where the serious lobbying can begin.
