Looking forward to this!! I ended up having to order my books thru amazon….our library district doesn’t carry the titles I’m planning to read, and two different bookstores didn’t have them, either.
I think it’s great that this tour kicks off with a general post, and finishes with a biography of Wilkie Collins.

I’m very excited to be on the tour. I have never read any Wilkie Collins before now, so this should be quite interesting!
By the way, the full title of my blog is “Time Enough At Last” — think the classic Twilight Zone episode with Burgess Meredith!

Hi Randall. Thanks for letting me know about your blog name. I fixed it!

It’s been great seeing Wilkie Collins popping up on everyone’s blogs recently…especially seen a lot of Collins on people’s read-a-thon lists!

Nice project! By complete chance, I today reviewed in parallel Wilkie Collins’ Dead Secret and Sheridan Le Fanu’s Evil Guest. It turns out I preferred Le Fanu, but people interested in this minor work by Collins can check on my blog too.

I’m still trying to wrap my head around the “virtual tour of the blogosphere” concept. I guess it’s the perfect venue for fans and readers alike…
