Fellowship in a Ring

A Guide for Science Fiction and Fantasy Book Groups
by Neil HOLLANDS
978-1-59158-703-3.
COPY ISBN
This comprehensive guide includes chapters on getting a group started; understanding the difference between the genres and subgenres; more than 50 book suggestions from literary classics to pop-culture favorites, along with information about the author, plot synopses, and discussion questions; and a final section on using a thematic approach to book discussions. The guide also contains hundreds of suggestions for further reading both in print and online. The tips are helpful; everything from how to organize the meetings to how to break the monotony if things start becoming staid. The lists are comprehensive, and it's hard to imagine anyone not finding something of interest within these pages.—Robin Henry, Wakeland High School, Frisco, TX
