EarthCore Reading & Weekly Discussion

Posted: Jun 06, 2012 @ 7:13PM 89 replies

Junkies - The idea came up to read through one of the FDO's works and have a weekly discussion about what we've read. There was enough interest so we'll be starting with EARTHCORE.

The book is no longer in print, so you'll either need to find yourself a copy or grab the free audiobook version through Podiobooks.com at this link or through iTunes at this link. Read below and we'll discuss when we'll start and how we'll coordinate between the book and audio versions.

Come join us on this adventure!

Since some of you started reading already, we're going to jump right in! Here's the schedule of chapters / pages / kindle locations to read through and what day we'll discuss it on. If you're listening to the free podcast, the chapters are broken up slightly differently, but the chapter titles are read throughout the audio so it should be easy to follow the chapter outline below.

Each Tuesday I'll post a bunch of questions regarding the chapters we read, just to get the discussion started, but really all discussions about the book are fair game.

And off we go!

WØØT! I'm ready to go!!

Also, I found a PDF version of EarthCore on my external HD that must have been distributed at some point way back when. So if anyone needs a print version, you can e-mail me at Belladonna420@gmail.com for a copy. :)

Ahh so maybe we should wait a wee bit for those who don't have their books yet.

And Bella, shoot a soft copy of that over to me. While I have a print version, it would be much more convenient to have it on my Kindle. Let me know if you need my email.

Excellent idea! If anyone else wants an electronic version so they don't have to touch their precious treeware copy, just let me know. I'll be happy to send it to anyone that asks. :)

Yes, that's true. So if you people start that book before then, I will be forced to spam this thread.

Got my copy of Earthcore. Thanks Bella!

60 pages left in contagious and then starting Earthcore. Can't wait to discuss it with everyone here. My wife looks at me strangely when I am talking about these books. I need to discuss with those who get it.
