It’s time once again to reconvene the Book Club to discuss a whole new roster of recommendations. The annual Book Club episode is a favorite of ours and thanks to all those who shared a bumper crop of contributions we have loads of suggestions to help fill up those summer reading lists. We will be joined by a special guest to talk genre literature next week allowing us to do our first two part Book Club episode.
After sharing a few or our own recent reads (more on that next week), and providing an update to the e-reader discussion following Ted’s recent conversion, we get to the listener picks. There is a wide variety of titles and authors to share including Jeff Strand, Stephen Irwin, Colton Whitehead, William Hope Hodgson, John W Campbell and Jonathan Mayberry. We not only have authors but novels, short story collections, genre compilations, even cartoonists and graphic novels. It’s a bumper crop of material to seek out and enjoy on the beach, on the bus or in your favourite dark lamp lit reading corner.
Many thanks to everyone who have helped us to deliver another instalment of the Book Club series and remember, contributions are welcome year round as we love to keep this tradition going.

Thanks so much for your coverage of Rocket Ride Books’ print and audio edition of “Who Goes There? (aka THE THING)”! Great show – I enjoyed the listener recommended reading titles and look forward to the coming book club episodes.
