20.5 It's Elemental

In honor of Actual Air, Earth Abides and Young Men and Fire, read a book with one of the words 'earth', 'air', or 'fire' in the title. Word may be in the title or sub-title, but must match exactly.

Does Rites of Passage work? (To the Ends of the Earth, #1)
shows up as the series title.

No, sorry, Ed. Just title/subtitle, no series titles.

Can the word be part of a compound word? Firestorm

Not for this task - also no plurals or possessives.

Thanks, I found another one that would work Mother Earth Father Sky

Yes - and part of a trilogy!

In addition to Under Fire that I reserved in the Historical thread (for a combo, I think, but we'll see), I also have penciled in The Big Burn: Teddy Roosevelt and the Fire that Saved America. I enjoyed another by Egan this season, but did not think I'd have an opportunity for another so soon.

and set in ancient times!

I think I probably am 'sol' with this one - however, there's no harm in asking....

I just finished "Death in the Air", which is Death in the Clouds. I didn't realize "Death in the Air" was the US title :( - annoying, as I thought it was a shoe-in for this task. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_i... I know the rule is MPE, but as I said above... no harm in asking!

Yes, I'm sorry - Death in the Clouds is the default title so that Death in the Air does not work for this task.

But you are correct - there is never any harm in asking!

Ok thanks! At least it works for 10.2 (well.... I did enjoy the book too! ha, ha)
