Subject: What Book Am I?
Date: Sep 02 12

This works like the movie and people threads. You ask yes/no questions, and the person who correctly guesses the book gets to pick the next one.

Books can be either fiction or non-fiction, must be classified as a novel or novella. This means no plays, poems, or short stories.

I will begin with:

What book am I?

The old reply to thread function was removed because it got to the point where people weren't even reading the announcements and assuming, by default, that they were somehow being wronged or forgotten or insulted or abused or cheated out of something in some manner.

Could it be Kenzo Kitakata's, "The Cage"?

Not that one, author's country is bigger than Japan.

Ok, how about "65 Lakh Heist," by Surender Pathak?

Reply #463. Sep 25 12, 8:06 PM

Not that one either. Bigger than India even.

Okay, then....I was trying to stay away from China as there seems to be so little crime fiction there translated into English, but how about "Blood Crime" by He Jiahong, or Lei Mi's "Mind Crime:Portraits"?

Russia is bigger still and though it's considered part of Eurasia, for the most part it lies in Asia that's why I've named the author as Asian.
So, Russian author, still living and male.

No idea if this one has been translated into English, and definitely won't count it as a crime series, but how about "Treading on Thin Ice/Startling By Each Step/Scarlet Heart" (All titles I've seen used) by Tong Hua.

The Winter Queen?

Reply #469. Sep 25 12, 10:33 PM

'The Winter Queen' by Boris Akunin it is, the first in the 'Erast Fandorin' series which I cannot recommend highly enough.

It is getting weird now, Aussiedrongo!

I'm going with a non-fiction book - US author, its subtitle describes itself as an encyclopedia of a particular subject.

Female author?

Reply #472. Sep 25 12, 11:33 PM

Male

Published before or after 2000?

Reply #474. Sep 26 12, 12:29 AM

First published in the 80s and greatly updated this century.

Is the subject politics and/or history?

Reply #476. Sep 26 12, 10:17 AM

Not politics or history. Much more important.

Reply #477. Sep 26 12, 10:49 AM

Religion or science?

Reply #478. Sep 26 12, 11:07 AM

No - more important.

Reply #479. Sep 26 12, 11:11 AM

There is actually a lot of science in the book. It's the science of something that is very important to us all.
