Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

A choosinating Badger?

I wonder what we'll get?
And when is the announcement?
From the heart of Fetchland's sett.

OH MISTER CHOOSINATOR!

CHOSE US A TOME
LIKE A SHORT-LEGGED OMNIVORE
SO THE CLAN CAN READ IT
AND PRETEND WE BELONG TO BELONG TO THE CANIFORM SUBORDER OF CARNIVORAN MAMMALS!

[I think the second verse might need some work]

I'm just over half-way with TVS. I found the "we" narration v. odd to start with and it still feels a bit jarring but I'm enjoying it so far.

I've also started The Girl With All The Gifts. It's disturbing but I'm enjoying not knowing where the story is going.

The Scribbler
Ooh I really enjoyed the first part of The Girl With All The Gifts, not quite knowing why things were as they were.

Badger
There once was a Badger on Fetch
Who was stuck for a book for a thread
His vast to-read pile
Contained much to beguile
By March 1 to decide he did pledge

Badger man blue, dilly, dilly, Badger man green
When he chooses a book, dilly, dilly, it might be obscene.
