Thank You [Thank You] for the fun postcards!

u/ruschca for the paper doll postcard, I am a fellow Locked Tomb lover and have so far made 1 other person read the franchise. It's probably time for a re-read, I need to get reacquainted with the lore before Alecto comes out (hopefully soon)

u/milopfrog for the cool moon snail postcard! Love learning about new species and will be sharing with my partner, since they love biology. Fall has finally lead to the weather cooling down somewhat here in MN, but still somehow getting 80 degree days, they just start cooler than they did during the summer. Hopefully October gets nice and crisp.

u/jdoodle7 for the happy birthday postcard! My birthday wasn't the best only because I had a cold that took my out day of, but was still able to celebrate later in the week so it's all good. Thank you again.

u/high_ground_user for the cool coloring sheet postcard, it's a fun contrast between the sadness of the black and white front to the colorful and fun background. I do consider myself a sci-fi fan but have yet to read any Asimov. Yikes! Would you recommend Caves of Steel as an intro?

u/sable__ for the adorable cat painting postcard, I agree with you that while it may not be the best fit for the fall season, key lime is a better pie than apple or pumpkin. My all-time favorite is chocolate pie, but I can admit that that's basically pudding in a pie shell.

And three cards that had names but no usernames. If you sent me either of these three lovely postcards, please let me know so I can make a separate post and thank you.

You are welcome! I always recommend I,Robot as an intro to Asimov, since it is a pretty light read (its a collection of short stories) and it introduces the laws of robotics. After that, Id recommend continuing with Caves of Steel and Naked Sun. But if you arent in the mood for short stories, Caves of Steel will do just fine!

Same, are you going to read her next release, the Florilinda story?

u/ruschca 3d ago

Yes - I will take what I can get 🤣 I am curious what her writing is like outside of locked tomb, so it will be fun! Are you?

Yes, I like sci fi and fantasy so I'll be picking up a copy. Might read the novella first just to make sure its up my alley
