Hmm, I have several of these. Interesting list.

I assume you've read the two books which go before The Oracle's Queen?

Of course... and I bought The Oracle's Queen as soon as it was out in paperback and then finished the other series I was reading and was distracted and never got around to actually reading it. LOL

It didn't use all of the threads I hoped it would. I'll be interested to see what you think.

Which is why I made sure to note that these were the unread books in my possession at the time I started my 1001 days. Any books purchased after 10/02 won't figure in until the 2nd round of 1001.

Hah!

My list of unread books would be longer. I'm always buying them and then never finding the time to read them. I strongly recommend Mansfield Park, which is the one book on your list which I have read.
