Yuletide season is here. I have my noms in (Kerbal Space Program, Uplift, Pushing Ice), other people have nommed Vorkosigan Saga for its perhaps-actually-final hurrah (988 fics, up from 963 last year), and some things I've heard nominations rumors of (Dichronauts, Machineries of Empire) are interesting and perhaps offerable. Dichronauts is physically here and next on my to-read list, and I have finally ordered The Raven Stratagem, so I can request/offer that as well. (Please read the series. Ninefox Gambit was excellent, and I have it on good authority that The Raven Stratagem is a fitting continuation.) If someone noms The Stars are Legion, that is also a thing I could offer/request. Lots of nice science fiction books! If I have the time, I might go through the tag set's Books & Literature section and separate out the sci-fi books, sorted by how many there are in the series :P

Oh, and this years Yuletide tagset's ID is 1998. The most recent one (when looking at the tag sets page) is 2013. Soon we'll have (had) more tag sets than years in the Gregorian calendar.

EDIT: Might as well make a Ninefox Gambit/Machineries of Empire icon, no? Imgur mirror here. Pose ref, texture. Quote's the Kel motto. Use wherever, mention me somewhere when you start using it.
