Ender's Game (book)

I'm thinking this is gonna get dinged for being for young adults.

Maybe, but it does appear on various "Best Sci-Fi" lists.

This is the biggest minefield here given how much of the genre could slip in to YA

Everyone gave a correct answer that round.

The closest call was Donk, since IASIP ranked 89 places below were IBD thought it should.

6 of you were between 16 and 19. Strange.

Turns out Ender's Game did qualify, which seems strange. I'd call that more young adult than The Hobbit. Also it's absurd that it ranks #3. It's really not that good.

The top 8 books are gone, while 4/6/7/8 still remain on the TV side.

The Left Hand of Darkness

The Invisible Man

Parks and Recreation

homeland

20,0000 Leagues Under the Sea

Sword of Truth books

farseer trilogy

Stranger Things

That's everyone and I've got some time to reveal.

Only IBD gets a strike there, going to the HG Wells well one too many times. Everyone else is good, but no one picked off a top 20 that round. There are plenty left.

Next round can start now. I guess I'll say Saturday AM as a deadline, but if everyone keeps up this pace in terms of activity, there's no real reason for a deadline.

I can't comment too much on this round, as I've only seen one (Peep Show) and read one (Left Hand of Darkness).

Both are great and I'm surprised they're only in the 40s.
