Northwest Akron's Speculative Fiction Group

A welcoming place where readers share their love of speculative fiction through a lively conversation about a pre-read title. Register online, in person, or by phone at 330.836.1081.

This is a group of speculative fiction fans (science fiction/fantasy) who want to read and discuss genre literature. Each month we'll discuss a book, either a new release or an older book (but ideally something that most people haven't read yet), that we've read before meeting.

The book for February's discussion is: "Skyward," by Brandon Sanderson.

"Spensa's world has been under alien attack for decades. Pilots are the heroes of what's left of humanity, and becoming a pilot is Spensa's dream. Ever since she was a little girl, Spensa has dreamed of soaring skyward and proving her bravery. But her father's legacy stands in the way—he was a pilot who was killed for desertion years ago, branding Spensa, the daughter of a coward, and making her chances of attending flight school slim to none.

Spensa is still determined to fly—even if it means she must be as resilient in the face of long odds as humanity itself has had to be against the alien threat. And her accidental discovery in a long forgotten cavern might just grant her a way to claim the stars."
