It seems like what turns a lot of people off from the genre is the stigma that it’s all aliens, robots, outer space, scientific terminology, and Star Trek, but it’s much much more than that. Sci-fi is a literature of ideas and infinite possibilities that may include the past or future, a completely different timeline, utopias or dystopias, science and technology like time travel, or an invasion of body snatchers. I love sci-fi because of its study, commentary, and exploration of humanity and technology. From cyberpunks to superhumans and beyond, it spans tastes and the sky’s the limit- good thing it’s a very vast sky.Here are the guidelines for the challenge:
1. Read 3.14 or 8 books (or audio books) of the science-fiction genre. (Mish provides suggestions)
2. You may join at any time.
3. Each time you read a book, please link to your reviews. If you don’t do reviews, no biggie.
