Jen D asked:


At a conference a few weeks ago, someone told me about a science fiction / fantasy book where the characters all have an animal ‘other’, who is always near them and mirrors their personality. Does anyone know that this book is called? I’ve forgotten the title and would like to read it. Sorry for the lack of information.

Andawg9 asked:


I’ve already read the Dune series, pretty much all of Asimov’s books, Orson Scott Card, Arthur C. Clarke, and several other series. What is another really good science fiction series? And I would prefer books that are more realistic science fiction, not super-crazy stuff.

I read all of my books and I love to read so I was looking for some good books to read…I’m not into science fiction or history, but anything else if fine. Any suggestions?

Last books I read so you might get an idea of what type of titles to suggest: The Kite Runner, A Thousand Splendid Suns, and I own and have read every Nicholas Sparks book…

How does the use of biotechnology by androids in science fiction sound?

Wednesday, January 14th, 2009
science fiction
scameter14 asked:


I’m writing, or about to begin writing, a science fiction story where androids are the main characters and are their own civilization. I’m wondering if, perhaps, since humans seem to prefer using inorganic technology and organic only to aid us rather than as tools, should/would it be more interesting if inorganic androids used organic technology as tools, and inorganic technology just to aid them? Or would that be too weird, using organic material as we use inorganic material in technology?
