Well the results are in from our second semifinal poll for the best young adult series. There aren't a lot of surprises unfortunately, though it did look like Stainless Steel Rat might squeak out a spot in the finals.
Unfortunately there was never a good spread between fifth and sixth place on this poll. I gave it an extra day and they just switched places a couple of times and ended up one apart again. Therefore I will use the fickled finger of unchecked dominion like the power hungry despot I am and add His Dark Materials to the final poll. I am drunk on my own power.
Expect the final poll up by tomorrow, and here are the titles that will be on it:
The Chronicles of Narnia - C.S. Lewis
Harry Potter- J.K. Rowling
Trickster Duology - Tamora Pierce
Percy Jackson & the Olympians - Rick Riordan
The Hunger Games - Suzanne Collins
A Wrinkle in Time Series - Madeleine L'Engle
OZ -L Frank Baum
Dragonriders of Pern by Anne McCaffrey
Winnie The Pooh - A.A. Milne
Heralds of Valdemar - Mercedes Lackey
His Dark Materials - Philip Pullman
