Science Fiction New Releases

[close] If you like space opera: an epic scale adventure through the galaxy with military battles, interplanetary politics, realistic interpersonal relationships and futuristic technology, then you've found the right place. Space Opera includes legacy sci-fi epics, tie-in universes (Star Wars, BSG, Firefly, etc.) & softer crossover epics aimed at enticing a new generation of young people, men and women into the genre. Legacy reader or brand new fan, welcome!!! Come join us for a frolicking good romp through the galaxy! We have space opera book discussions, TV and movie tie-ins, comic/anime/manga tie-ins, gaming tie-ins, and even discussions for upcoming Sci-Fi Conventions and LARPing. General science-fiction fans are welcome, but no arguing! We can discuss the different sci-fi sub-genres and various preferences. AUTHORS: The best way to get your books noticed by our community members is by being a participating member yourself. Spamming is prohibited! However, we do have certain, limited ways to put your book in front of readers.

[close] Hi there! SFFBC is a welcoming place for readers to share their love of speculative fiction through group reads, buddy reads, challenges, and lively conversation.

[close] Click HERE for the latest group announcements. "It reminded me of ____ but in space." "I read ____ in high school, and actually liked it." "It's like a cross between ____ and ____ with a little Harry Potter thrown in." "YOU'VE NEVER READ ____?!?" You know the drill. Your friends reference it, your husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend/"sort of thing?" raves about it, even your favorite movies quote it, or it IS your favorite movie but you've never read the book. This group is for those of us for whom one of the following may apply... - we have finally developed a taste for reading and are severely behind on classics; - we kindaaa, sortaaa, but actually slept through English class in high school and used Sparknotes/Hollywood remakes to write our book reports; - we buy a book that everyone is talking about and it sits on our shelf, and sits there... and sits there; - we've heard the hype and are finally getting around to reading the actual book; - we want to expand our horizons beyond the single genre we usually read and want to do so with some time-tested material; - we just plain old want to get everyone off our backs for not having read _____. Every month we'll choose three books to read: 1) a classic (that everyone has probably read but us), 2) a "modern" classic or popular book that everyone is talking about, and 3) a bookshelf catch-up in which we choose a book the group has already read to catch-up with other members.

[close] Un grupo para todas aquellas personas de habla hispana que quieran compartir un buen rato en mi cafetería.
