Norwescon’s official year-round book club, Norwescon’s Bibliophiles, focuses on science fiction and fantasy books selected throughout the year by the participants. Feel free to join us for some Norwescon camaraderie and connection all year long. Once they’re announced in January, we’ll read a selection of the Philip K Dick nominees. In late spring we often read some of the Hugo nominees. The club has a Facebook page and monthly meetings. Most of the meetings are virtual, but there is an in-person meeting during Norwescon as well as two or three additional in-person meetings throughout the year.
Upcoming book discussions include:
- October 21: Dead Silence by S.A. Barnes. A sci-fi horror novel just in time for Halloween.
- November 18: Service Model by Adrian Tchaikovsky. Mad Max if Max were C3PO!
- December 16: The Frugal Wizard’s Handbook for Surviving Medieval England by Brandon Sanderson. A new take on A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court? We’ll find out.
Note: Norwescon’s official book club has new leadership. Last month, in an elegant ceremony, Kevin Black passed the official book club scepter to Jon Lavinder and Crystal Lloyd, trusting them to coordinate Norwescon’s official year-round book club, Norwescon’s Bibliophiles.
