Science Fiction & Fantasy (English)

The world of science fiction and fantasy is rich and varied. Often lumped together under the catchall term "speculative fiction," the two genres are distinctive. This collection list is gathered from Hugo Awards, Nebula Awards, and NPR's 100 Best Science Fiction and Fantasy list. These books tie in well with book and conversation clubs, speaker programs on literary themes, and culture programs about the United States.

This collection contains: 18 books
