Hard Science Fiction

For those fanatics who believe hyperspace travel is just years away...
For all those science maniacs who lose themselves in the quantum flux.

Activity?
Started by Alf M, Thursday, January 17 2008. Last post Wednesday, July 30 2008.

Is this group active? I'm interested in reading a book and discussing it online. Currently I'm reading Vernor Vinge's "A Deepness in the Sky", but I am interested in finding good, new science fiction.

Same here. I joined before looking at the group shelf, and there's not a lot of what I'd consider "hard SF" to be found there. BTW, hope you enjoyed "A Deepness in the Sky"; I liked the change in character/alien perspective on that one.

deepest apologies if i haven't kept the group active with updates. its been a hectic last 6 months with little or no time for any reading at all, let alone big fat sci-fi.

its true that the group shelf does not contain much of what is considered hard sci-fi :D Need to work on that sometime!

i have not read the deepness in the sky. vinge however brings some fascinating concepts in the Across Realtime series - the bobbles of time.
