Badbeats' Book Club Giveaway

Closed

It's time to get reading for magic! Or Magicka, to be more exact.

Pow! (Success!)

You have precisly one week (and a bit) to solve. That should give you time to read some of those books. ^_^

Oh, and I will say, the first 8 questions are one word answers, so no need to be too wordy, ironically.

I knew #3 off the top of my head (fantastic book), but didn't know the rest. I recognized a few series that I had been meaning to read, but haven't gotten around to though. I already own Magicka, so I don't think I'll pursue it any further, but just wanted to say: well done fellow book-puzzle maker.

It really is a very good book. One of my favorites from Asimov and that's saying a fair bit. :)

The short story version is better than the book version. The book is a collaboration with another author, and he didn't really impress me. But yea, Asimov is my favorite author of all time, and my personal favorite is The Gods Themselves

Ohhh, The Gods Themselves is good. Though oddly, my copy has a picture of a bunch of missiles in flight on the front cover. I don't recall any missiles in the story itself. I never did quite figure out what that cover was about.

Only knew #5 & #10 off the top of my head. I've yet to have the pleasure to read the other books. I already have Magicka but I might return to the quiz if I find the inclination.

I love reading books, usually even more than playing games/watching movies, but I didn't get to read any of these xP
I did know the answer for the first one, though :P lol

Hmmm. Very few entries indeed. Is it really that difficult? I suppose there's a few questions about some slightly more obscure books. I guess I'll have to come up with some hints.

Well, ok. I guess there's not too many readers around, judging by the number of entries. :P Hints it is.

Q1: Oh come on, I'm not giving a hint for this.

Q2: The answer is more obvious than you might think.

Q3: The title is the clue.

Q4: If you can't see it, you know it's there.

Q5: The Soul Render is, I believe only called that once in the book. He's generally known by another name.

There's a boxed version?! >_> I'm honestly surprised, but I guess it makes sense.

Just 7 hours to go before the Book Club closes its doors. That's juuuuuuuust enough time to read on of those books. If you're quick. I'll round off with one final hint.

"Question 8. The title of the book in question is something to consider."
