Ok - I'm pretty sure that Dec is Heinlein - probably 'Stranger in a Strange Land' and 'Starship Troopers'. Published within two years of each other and the phrase 'was among the first to emphasize scientific accuracy in science-fiction' is verbatim off Heinlein's wikipedia page.

This 100 percent this! Good job on this guess. I was hoping Chrichton but you are right with this guess

Now, this would be a cool set. 😉

I’m stoked that all 3 science fiction titles are getting AGE’s. I thought November could be We Have Always Lived in the Castle.

It's noted as a second release by that author, and they've already published Jackson twice. Additionally it's being signed by the author- so I'm still thinking 'Seed'

Anyone have a guess for the poetry collection? https://www.pulitzer.org/prize-winners-by-category/224

Good call. Makes more sense.

[MikeDuke]

Wow.
There is a lot to go through in that news letter. 5 books. Way to finish out the year.

I’m bummed that the book of poetry is only 1-150 as my number is 165. I suppose it would be 100 times worse if it was a King title, though.

[MikeDuke]

Yea, I am squeaking in with my number being 130.

Tell me about it.. my lifetime number is... ready for this?????????????????? #150!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Lookwhoitis]

Well, after seeing todays production announcement, I have decided I am going to have to put some books on the market to have a chance at keeping a seat on the train.

I have # 188 of both Bibliomysteries and The Auctioneer ordered and would be willing to move them. Please note that I am not interested in selling my rights, so if you wanted the Auctioneer, it would be for the book itself, no rights included.

Shoot me a private message if you have any interest and we can discuss specifics from there.

Have you read 'Armor' by John Steakley? In terms of plot, setting has some similarities to 'Starship Troopers' - but a very different book. Not sure how much this gets read, but there are some striking aspects to it - though it's a little overlong at points.

Hm... Many authors to choose from of course but this one by Frank Bidart sounds quite interesting : Half-light: Collected Poems 1965–2016 .

Robert Heinlein - Starship Troopers and Stranger in A Strange Land = December releases
Bah just seen I was beat by 3 minutes, my slow typing loses again

Robert Heinlein..... but maybe .... Tunnel in the Sky ?

'Life on Mars' by Tracy K. Smith could be interesting, something of a popular following - and could fit in with the nominal sci-fi theme that q4 seems to have.

Not sure about that - "these classic novels published within two years of each other, are considered among the writer’s greatest achievements"

Interesting as well, i do love mythology though. Half-Light has 736 pages and Life On Mars has 88 pages.
Both sound equally interesting to me, although i haven't read much poetry in my life.

Nice! I was thinking Heinlein, but couldn’t think which books. Those two make sense.

(A volume of the moon is a harsh mistress would also be very welcome. That’s an extraordinary book of his as well.)

I've never read Heinlein. The closest I've come is listening to Iron Maiden.

That's Huxley's Brave New World though.

I was thinking Stranger in a Strange Land and Number of the Beast were both inspired by Heinlein, but a few minutes of research disconfirmed that.

Have the winners of the lottery for The Auctioneer been contacted?

Ah good one, i had not thought about specific songs to be honest. 😉
