Bloggers appreciate readers, and so do I, so I'm giving away a six-pack of YA science fiction and fantasy books to one lucky, randomly-selected follower. Lure is a paperback; the rest are hardbacks. The Adoration of Jenna Fox is signed. My shelves are overflowing and my nose hates the book dust I'm too lazy to take care of--so I'm pleased to give them away to a lucky winner, and I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.
![The Adoration of Jenna Fox [ADORATION OF JENNA FOX] [Hardcover]](http://ws.amazon.com/widgets/q?MarketPlace=US&ServiceVersion=20070822&ID=AsinImage&WS=1&Format=_SL160_&ASIN=B002VGRSGA&tag=reaandwon-20)
To enter:
1. You must be a follower of this blog. It's on your honor; if you follow anonymously or through an RSS feed, or some other way, you are eligible to enter. One entry per person, please!
2. You must provide me with an e-mail address where I can reach you (I recommend mangling it to avoid getting spam), and with a U.S. mailing address if you are the lucky winner. I tend to be slow to get books in the mail during the winter months, and I apologize for that, but I always get books out eventually!
3. You must leave me a comment that answers this question: If you had to choose just one, would you rather have magic or science, and why?The giveaway closes at midnight on Sunday, March 20. I'll use a random number generator to select the winner in the next week.
Thanks to Books Complete Me and I Am a Reader, Not a Writer for arranging the blog hop!
I am a gfc follower. That is a tough one, because I am a science geek. Even though I really like magic, I would have to go with science.

Science - because I'd rather use my brain and I assume that the magic would be available to anyone regardless of intelligence.

MAGIC. you cant ask formore than that. I'm not a nerd or anything, so magic might be easier for me to use rather than gravitational force or whatever. Thanks for the giveaway!

ReplyDeleteMagic, because science takes a while to figure out how to do stuff. With magic, you could be like "I want this" and it's there. Plus science can't give you materialistic things :P

ReplyDeleteMy answer is.....magic.....because doesn't it also include some science? It's not just pointing your finger or wiggling your nose. You must be part alchemist, part botanist & there has to be an inane understanding of the outcome you are expecting.....so more like science than most people think.

ReplyDeleteWow! What a hard question! One that does not have an easy answer because both could be abused. Alexis said that she wouldn't trust other people with magic, but I think the same can be said of science as well. That's why dystopia has become as popular as it has.
If I had to pick one I guess I'd say science because it involves more thought and effort than magic.

I'd have to choose both. The best of both. Science has given us many wonderful things (cures to many illnesses, electronics :o} etc...) but it has also given us many bad things such as Weapons of Mass Destruction.
The same would go with Magic. If everyone could do Magic the world would be in chaos! It would have to be only good magic
So, I think a world with both Good Science and Good Magic would be my Ideal world!
Thanks!
