This is the NBRC Book Ninja! Just when you thought you couldn't earn any more Book Advantage Points (BAPs), I appear!

You never know when I will pop up, or what I will ask for. These little mini tasks will be worth one or two (1 - 2) BAPs.

For the first task, I will grant your Team one (1) BAP for any Team where two members read books by the same author. They may be the same book, or not. They may be under different pseudonyms, too; it matters not to me!

You have until the 23rd of November to earn these points.

Until the next surprise.

So this is not for books already read? We have to have 2 players read books by the same author as of now? Is there a start date to worry about?

I'll take any books from November 1st onward.

Only one point max per Team for the first task.

Books finished or started on Nov 1st?

In that case Hobbits are done :P
