Featured previous book club selection, from September 2005:
Chasm City by Alastair Reynolds


flying saucer We meet generally twice a month
We're a group, a book club, of science fiction and fantasy fans.
We meet at 7:30PM on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of the month at the Barnes & Noble Bookstore near Park Meadows Mall (Yosemite & County Line Rd.) in southeast suburban Denver, Colorado. You can find us in a circle of chairs on the east side of the store near the magazines area.
You're welcome to join us!
In November and December, due to the holidays, we meet only on the 2nd Wednesdays.
We alternate between reading science fiction and fantasy books
Once in a while our book club strays slightly from the SF genre. Future selections are recommended by and chosen by the group. We choose paperbacks readily available at the Barnes & Noble store.
Our group has read and discussed many, many books
Below are listed our last thirty-two (32) book selections (there are many more). We individually rate the books we've read. You're welcome to see which books we'd each recommend. The ratings and opinions of group members often differ.
Web pages for our book selections feature cover art, blurbs, author bibliographies, and web links. Many pages include book summaries, commentaries, or critiques.
