Ordero asked: I’m working on a science fiction novel about a group of college students who are being hunted down by people in another country. How can I present large quantities of information at the beginning of the book without it sounding cheesy or boring?

PHILLIP L asked: I have found through careful research and discussion that science fiction isn’t appreciated enough anymore. It’s usually too weird, nerdy or uninteresting. But is there a way to bring it back to its glory days and make us proud of sci-fi…

Wolfie asked: For me it’s Dune by Frank Herbert. Other authors I liked were Ray Bradbury and George Orwell… I do not consider Stephen King science fiction… he is many things but rarely that. Please don’t answer Dracula, Frakenstein, or and other books that are based more on horror than on actual science fiction.
Please do not put the Bible… even if you believe it’s fiction… it is NOT science fiction.
