Sci-Fi Reading Group

The Sci-Fi Reading Group will meet in the Quiet Reading Room from 7-8:30 pm to discuss Blindsight by Peter Watts.

Two months since the stars fell.
Two months ago, innumerable alien objects surrounded Earth, screaming as they burned their way into our atmosphere. The heavens have been silent since. Now, though, a derelict space probe has heard whispers from a distant comet. Something talks out there–but not to us.
Who should be sent to find out?
Send a linguist with multiple personality disorder, and a cyborg biologist who can’t feel his own flesh. Send a pacifist warrior, and a vampire resurrected by the voodoo of paleogenetics. Send a man missing half his mind since childhood. And pray they can be trusted with the fate of a world. Because they may be more alien than the thing they’ve been sent to find.

Please note that this SFRG will be meeting on the fourth Monday of the month! The Sci-Fi Reading Group typically meets the third Monday of every month and is open to curious minds of all ages, whether or not they’ve read this month’s selection.
