Look who’s #1 as of 1/13!
The Ghost Brigades tore me up. I’m stunned it isn’t even in the top twenty (though I voted for OMW, too, so I’m not complaining). Is OMW really that much more popular? Or is it more famous because it came first?

It’s the first in the series so it’s the one people came in contact with first, which matters, and/or I suspect they’re voting for it as a general vote for the series.

I voted for OMW for the reason that you just stated. That being said, I think your best work in that series was in “Zoe’s Tale”. I’m serious, John, the section about Enzo and his family just breaks me up every time. I just did a reread last week and my wife came over and asked me why I looked like I was going to cry.
