As part of Stainless Steel Droppings 2016 Sci Fi Experience which runs through 1st December to close of January (details here) I’m going to blog a quote (or two) from a different sci fi movie each day. See if you can guess the film. Yesterday was of course Star Wars. Yeah no surprises there

“Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine. Every Wednesday we get to highlight a book that we’re really looking forward to.

This is book No.3 of the Red Queen’s War – and I want it! Due June 2016.
