	I didn't get many, but at least I have lots of new titles to put on my To Read list.

	I've read most of the books in the left-hand column, but none in the right - guess when I moved house from a town with an SF-fan librarian....

	Thanks for the quiz. It's great to see SF recognized. I'm not so sure the "Retro Hugos" should be on there, though. Yes, I realize they have been officially voted on at the conventions, but that is fifty years after the fact. It's likely that different novels would have been picked if the voting was contemporary. If people were picking the best novel for 1959 now I doubt that A Case of Conscience would win. By the way, I'm guessing that the Nebula Award winning novels quiz is coming up?

	@kateisthewhat and DerekH - From the novels in the right hand column I would definitely recommend Ender's Game, Speaker for the Dead, and The Diamond Age. Lois McMaster Bujold's novels with her character of Miles Vorkosigan in them are entertaining, but you should not start with the ones that are in this list. Instead start with The Warrior's Apprentice, which introduces the character. If you like it and want to read more then there is a guide in the back of the book that shows the sequence of the novels.

	Very nice. A quiz for Nebula is next, I hope?

	@Golf04330, thisisaname: If someone doesn't beat me to it, I'll be sure to add a Nebula awards quiz in November. (I've used up my allotment of quizzes for this month.)

	I took this quiz solely because it has two of Card's masterpieces as answers. That alone made it worth it.

	andrea:	Oct 22nd, 2009 at 18:54 GMT	1 point
	I think the Retro Hugos should be moved to bonus answers.

	Nebula Awards quiz is up: http://www.sporcle.com/games/MRL/nebula_award_novels

	Good, good. BTW, if there's a tie, you should split up the answer into two.

	MRL:	Jul 1st, 2010 at 21:39 GMT	1 point
	@Retracto: It's a good suggestion, and it's what I did with the Nebula Awards quiz (this one was one of my first, and it didn't occur to me initially.) If I could still alter it, I'd do that, but once a quiz is published, it's strictly in the hands of the Sporcle admins.

	Wow, tough quiz. 94th percentile, but I feel I should have done better. Missed a few books I loved as a kid.
