And, hey, I've already planned on doing some science fiction reading in the new year, so I won't be adding much to the ol' reading pile.

That's a nice list! I'm hoping to do this too, just need to find a moment to do a quick post. I did it last year and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Bev, I'm not into Science Fiction, but it's so nice to see someone else who's (almost) addicted to challenges as I am! Keep 'em coming - we are going to have SO much fun next year :-)
Woohoo, some Frank Herbert! I love him! :D
Scifi is my first love and I can't wait to see what you think of the books you're reading. Absolutely love Frank Herbert and I hope you enjoy The Jesus Incident!
Now this one intrigues me, Bev. I don't read much science fiction but that's my own fault. If I join up with this one, I'll have an excuse...as if I needed one. :)
I'm waiting until the first of the year before I make any important decisions....like which Challenges to join. Ha!
I'm so excited for this. It's not often that I read science fiction, so I'm looking forward to it. I just found that I have a copy of Journey to the Center of the Earth, so maybe that goes on my list as well!
You've got a great list, I may need to bookmark this to remember these titles!
Ah Randall Garrett. I love the Lord Darcy series. I have the omnibus volume with all his stories. I found the Vintage SF challenge, which will be an interesting challenge, compared to mystery. I have plenty of classic mystery writers on my shelf, but oddly not as many sf ones.
