With very few (I think only one) exceptions, either Sam or myself (and in many cases, both of us) has read every book we condense on the Book-A-Minute SF/F page. We've been a little more lenient with the upcoming Classics page, only because we've both been through enough English classes and been exposed to the "classics" enough to be able to do a good condensation without actually having read the entire book.
