For the last few years we have had great success in reading the occasional international SF from countries like Germany, Sweden, Poland and China. It's been a mind expanding experience for us all and one we will very happily continue.
But in September, October and November 2015 we will be having a short season celebrating the BEST OF BRITISH SCIENCE FICTION. That's right, we'll be popping on our Union Jack waistcoat, pinning on our UKIP membership badge, drinking warm beer with Fish N' Chips, while reading British SF.
Our September reading list is set and features four short works, with two classic & two modern British SF novels.
Join us! And remember, there is only one night for each book!
