Internet Book List

I just found this website, so I haven't explored it very extensively; but it looks like it might be something to rival Amazon in searching for fiction titles and information. According to the About page, "its purpose is to provide a comprehensive and easily accessible database of books, since Patrik considers the Book to be humanity's greatest creation." There's a bold statement.
The database is designed to search by title, author, genre, and rating. It is particularly easy to search information about books in a series, a function I find lacking on Amazon.
The forums are also quite interesting and extensive. There are forums for general discussion of books; author, book and convention announcements; discussion of movies, music and cultural trends; specific official and unofficial author discussion forums; and more.
Explore and enjoy!
