How did I only just discover this? What a great list! I may join you for a few of them. I’ve been wanting to re-read The Vortex, but I’m not sure if I’ll get around to it in June, and I’ve been “working” on I, The Supreme for… ever, being unable to finish it. Maybe I’ll give it another shot in October.
Probably it was lack of publicity / belief anyone would join in. – Yes, I feel I, The Supreme will be the last great stumbling-block (The President, however hard-going it might be, is at least quite short); it will be good to have some company.
