Piggy backing off the other book thread... Which gripping book deserves a nod to film? Feel free to name possible casting choices for the books

For me the charm school by Nelson D. Or beyond recognition

Really cool shit.

The main character was a little girl that could bring vegetation back to life.

I think it came out in the early 80's.
Every book of his Ive ever read is pretty damn good. Glad to see a few fellow fans of his on here.

Hopefully it goes better than Childhood's End. What a disaster that was.

You didn't like Childhood's End? Huh. I haven't read the book in 30 years but I thought it was pretty much exactly how I remembered it.

Are you in a half intoxicated/half drowsy right now? (Caught it before the edit.)

You can certainly make an argument for immaturity, but how was my post lacking common sense? I clearly understood the intent. The title I suggested actually is a book. And based on your grammar in the thread title (and the quoted post above), I assumed you don't read much. So I thought maybe the movie version would help.

As far as me keeping out of this thread.... Yeah, probably not. But thanks for the suggestion.

Well, as soon as I learn how to read and apply that to written form, i'll be sure to check out the culinary section and find you a book that can help you make appetizing food.

So I shouldn't hold my breath? I do like cookbooks, though.

Anne McCaffrey's "Dragonriders of Pern" original trilogy ("Dragonflight", "Dragonquest", "The White Dragon").

Terry Brooks's "Magic Kingdom For Sale".

Terry Goodkind's "Sword of Truth" (done right, not the "Legend of the Seeker" version, more like "Game of Thrones").

Isaac Asimov's trilogy, "The Caves of Steel", "The Naked Sun", and "The Robots of Dawn".

Ralph LaLonde's series "Spinward Fringe" . Although he's not done with writing the series I think it would make for some kick ass television.
