Science Fiction Fantasy

[close] If you like space opera: an epic scale adventure through the galaxy with military battles, interplanetary politics, realistic interpersonal relationships and futuristic technology, then you've found the right place. Space Opera includes legacy sci-fi epics, tie-in universes (Star Wars, BSG, Firefly, etc.) & softer crossover epics aimed at enticing a new generation of young people, men and women into the genre. Legacy reader or brand new fan, welcome!!! Come join us for a frolicking good romp through the galaxy! We have space opera book discussions, TV and movie tie-ins, comic/anime/manga tie-ins, gaming tie-ins, and even discussions for upcoming Sci-Fi Conventions and LARPing. General science-fiction fans are welcome, but no arguing! We can discuss the different sci-fi sub-genres and various preferences. AUTHORS: The best way to get your books noticed by our community members is by being a participating member yourself. Spamming is prohibited! However, we do have certain, limited ways to put your book in front of readers.
