The Dragon Waiting group sync-read
Oct. 1st, 2020 12:31 pmHello everyone and welcome to our group sync-read of the first of John M. Ford's books to be rereleased by Tor, The Dragon Waiting (1983)! I know there are 5-6 of you who have already expressed keen interest in this virtual bookclub; if you are not one of them PLEASE feel free to join us if the book looks like your jam! It's said to be a dense book so I'm looking forward to having fellow travelers to tackle it with me. If you haven't already, do read this to get a general idea of what the book is like and this longer article which situates Ford's work in the context of what was happening in the genre at the time.
I'm going to start an Introductions thread below where we can all introduce ourselves and hash out the structure of the sync-read. I'll give it a few days (until October 4) for us all to post a short intro, and get on the same page re: the reading schedule. See you all down there!
P.S. there's one or two of you i may have corralled into getting a Dreamwidth account just so you could join this dicussion lol for you guys I recommend turning on email notifications for this post so that anytime anybody replies to this post, you'll get notified.
