![]() Sorry... But at least you've been warned, so you won't be too shocked when it starts getting really confusing.

That same attitude made me decide not to buy Song and Dance and Mirror's Edge when they came out and were normally priced. I regret that decision now.

![]() Here are my choices:
1. Pulitzer 2. Angels Unaware 3. Knights of the Morningstar Those were the best. There were a few other ones that were good. I liked Too Close for Comfort and Odyssey. And I agree with those that said Search and Rescue was dreadful.

![]() Well, it seems like the general favorite of the community is Pulitzer. That was a good one, I recall - though I think I rushed through it so now I have to read it again (darn). ^.^
I bought all of my books when they first were released. I came in to the fandom just in time - when Preludes could still be bought new on the shelf, but only barely. That used to be my favorite, before Pulitzer and Angels came out. I, too, had eventually lost interest in QL, though I had common sense. Right around when Mirror's Edge just came out, I decided to buy it anyway. Ended up in a box, unread. I have the whole collection still in the same box. I had given it to a friend, who had kindly given it all back to me when I moved back to CA. Good friend. Pulitzer is the best, right next to Angels. Angels is a little depressing. I liked Preludes 'cause it was about Sam and Al before they were leaping and I like their friendship - though Ashley McConnell made Al kind of a dumb soldier type. I much prefer Laurie Slicer's rendition of him - genius to almost rival Sam. Almost. Search and Rescue? Yeah, I just reread the end. 'Cause it's touching - no pun intended. Mirror's Edge I'm reading right now. It's . . . okay, I guess. Carol Davis is really wordy though. I wonder if she was afraid she might not fill the word quota or something . . . Not looking forward to the end. It's supposed to be the leap before Mirror Image - and we all know what happened there. Death to Universal Executives! It's time for Hostile QL Fandom take over! Or - maybe not so hostile. And stupid stupid Fox people canceling Firefly! k - I'm done.

![]() I enjoyed "Prelude" which was kind of a prequel story about how Sam and Al set up Project QL. The book ends with Sam stepping into the accelerator. I think McConnell wrote that one. It was a good story, but I do remember a few continuity mistakes...
I also read "Carny Knowledge", "Too Close For Comfort", "The Wall", "The Beginning", "The Ghost And The Gumshoe", "Knights Of The Morning Star", and I think I started to read "Pulitzer" but got bored of it. My memory on these are a little vague, I read these well over ten years ago. Well over. I must have been about 14, 15.

![]() Mirror's Edge was so confusing I wrote the author. She wrote on Trudy's Scott Bakula fan forum once. I asked her so many questions I think she hates me. It's so confusing. I had to reread it and still cried. I never stop crying perusing them again. I miss Quantum Leap so much.

![]() If it makes you feel better, you aren't the only one confused by Mirror's Edge. And from what I've heard, the author gets a bit defensive about poor reviews.

![]() Hi all. I'm having a life clean out and sadly this includes my Quantum Leap Novels. I have pretty much all of them including the original Beginning and Ghost and the Gumshoe from their first printing in 1990. I would really like them to go to a good home so if you want to make me an offer. PM if you want a title and i'll see.
I read the first couple of books but never got round to the others. I kept buying them just because I was a huge fan and proudly displayed them.
