M. John Harrison

After some difficulties and adjusting for various summer plans that required some discussion we’ve finally settled down on M. John Harrison’s Light. It is the first book of the "Empty Space Trilogy" and won the James Tiptree, Jr. Award in 2002 and a was shortlisted for the Arthur C. Clark Award in 2003. It follows the lives of three odd individuals whose lives are linked to each other in many unlikely ways. (derdahinteninderecke)… (més)

Our new theme for the next three discussions by the Octavia Books Science Fiction Book Club is "The Dying Earth," and the first book is (naturally) The Dying Earth, included in the collection Tales of the Dying Earth along with three sequels by Jack Vance. For December you need only read that first novel; but if sufficient people read more than one, the discussion might follow.

Then, for January we'll read The Pastel City by M. John Harrison, collected in Viriconium with three sequels. And, for February, Hothouse by Brian Aldiss. The Science Fiction Book Club meets on the 2nd Saturday each month and welcomes all interested readers. We welcome you to join us!
