All,
This is an invitation to join the Yahoo Group Classic Sci-Fi. Each month we read and discuss (online) a different Classic Sci-Fi title.
Here are the particulars:
ClassicSci-Fi
This is a science fiction reading and discussion group that will concentrate on the classic novels of this genre. Generally speaking this includes novels written prior to about 1970. Examples of authors are Clifford Simak, Arthur C. Clarke, Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury, Robert Heinlein, Ursula LaGuin, H. G. Wells, Walter Miller, John Wyndham, and many others. If you love the old sci-fi, come on in and join us for reading and discussion of these classics. We'll read both hard and soft sci-fi and discuss them as a group. We'll talk about how the literary devices the author used worked for that particular novel and whether the premises the author set up are believable. We have nominations and polls to determine which books we'll be reading and discussing for any given month. Please join us as we travel to other regions of space and time.
