Books you wish was ...
Might I suggest adding a little Strunk and White to your reading list. |

Unfortunately my idea of translation and Hollywood's are vastly different. Hence crap like I, Robot. |

I always thought The Chronicles of Prydain deserved better than the one Disney film they got.
Hazel Holt writes cozies that I think would work for either TV movies or a limited run series. I'd like to see if some network could get her, and a few other of the writers in that sub-genre, to sign on for their books being used for a mystery of the week sort of show. Charles Sailor's The Second Son was bought by MGM but never made it to the screen. I'd like to see that one done. Last edited by Just Passin' By; 05-18-2016 at 03:31 PM.. |

I loved everything by Arthur C. Clarke but I just never really dug Heinlein, even thought I read all of his books. At the root, they were more political in nature than sci-fi, as least that was my take during junior high and high school. |

The Sword of Truth series would be good if it got the proper treatment, I've seen some bad attempts at it.

Things would have to be changed (science was BAD in that) but I loved the basic idea.
