One lesser-known science fiction author I love is Connie Willis. She has marvelous collections of short stories, fun romantic romps like Bellwether, and not-so-fun but excellent heavy (in both senses of the word) works like The Doomsday Book. Oh, and Lincoln's Dreams.

As a penny-pincher with a Kindle, I've been discovering some of the classics you can get for free or very cheap (and they don't take up any physical space on your book shelves!). Right now I'm in the middle of Mark Twain's A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, from his complete works. I read Doctor Jekyll and Mister Hyde, and some other classics. I even tried some of the Oz books (L Frank Baum, not the HBO show with the naked Chris Meloni), but many of them are not very good.

And I'll throw another vote in for Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman. (Try Good Omens if you want them both at the same time!)

I love Terry Pratchett books, his humour and talent for showing us our world twisted hilariously into his fantasy Discworld always makes me laugh out every time I read the books. Plus there are loads of them so you won't get bored quickly.

If you want something a bit more serious and Sci-Fi, my favourite book in that genre is "Intervention" by Julian May. It's about the emergence of psychics over the world during the last 60 years and how they changed the world, good and bad. All while being watched by aliens races hoping that humans would grow up enough for them to make contact. The book is part of a series that takes part in the far future, but this one is the best to start with.

I'm relieved to see that everyone is ok with this idea, so far, lol. I'll give it a few more days to ensure everyone gets a chance to comment.

Ltervlet fully explained the way we would transfer characters from SoS to KoS, and I'd just like to add that we would need players to ask to be re-invited to KoS as we can't just transfer the characters when they are offline (and we wouldn't do that without permission anyway). For inactive characters, they will be automatically removed (by Ltervlet, thanks) after 60 days, but active characters need to be transfered by the players themselves.

Please be patient when asking for an invite to KoS from SoS, and it would be wise to ask in the KoS chat channel if anyone can invite you to KoS before leaving SoS. To answer the question about when you can ask for a transfer, there is nothing stopping anyone asking for an invite to KoS now, but I would ask that everyone wait until the weekend so we can be sure that it is what the majority of players want, and so Ltervlet is not swamped (there are more people with invite ability on at weekends normally).

Halish is right that the officers will be keeping SoS as a "spare" guild and we will have our least played characters put there so we can do that. One idea for SoS is that we can use it for crafting members so they can store supplies there, but we would only start buying bank tabs there once we have all the tabs in KoS and LoS, and SoS is clear of characters.

I'm definitely happy for this to happen. Especially with the knowledge of how much the tabs are going to be. I hadn't been able to login to the Test Server to check myself unfortunately!

To date it seems like those that have responded have agreed with the remerging of the guilds on the Republic side. I, personally, don't see an issue with people being reinvited to KoS is they wish to go ahead.

Soldiers of Stonewall will remain just in case we need to use it in the future in whatever capacity. This will be taken care of by the officers and you guys really don't need to worry about using up a character slot to save it :)

Thanks for the info, Intervlet...and the specific numbers, Van! I love the merge. :)

Now I guess the question is what happens with Soldiers of Stonewall? If everyone abandons the guild, does SoS just cease to exist? Is the name still there for us to use if we have the unfortunate circumstance of needing it in the future?

You could always keep a handful of toons in KoS to keep it active, think of it like a skeleton crew, that way if there's a need for a second guild ready made.


One issue I see with keeping the SoS guild is that it will require a dedicated character slot on that player's account. Four people would have to agree to that. Not a problem for me, I have a lowbie toon parked at the GTN keeping an eye on the market. I'd be happy to put him in the SoS guild if that's what leadership decides and needs.

I think this is a good idea. Should we switch them over as soon as we can or are we waiting for a bit?

Finally!! Good idea and long over due.

As of last nite KoS only had 312 members, down from 485. If you remove the folks who have not been on in over 60 days the number goes well below 275. So there will be no need to worry about out growing the cap.

If you move the few active members from SoS to KoS you still will not go over 300, again giving you enough wiggle room in KoS for growth.

I love A Burnt-Out Case by Graham Greene its not long but its the best book I read in high school.

From Amazon:
Querry, a world-famous architect, is the victim of an attack of indifference, no longer finding meaning in art or pleasure in life. Arriving anonymously at a Congo leper village, he loses himself in work for the lepers. As he helps the lepers, so he approaches a self-cure.
