Calling all Trekkies, Asimov aficionados, Game of Thrones fangirls, and folks hitch-hiking through galaxies far, far away. Come talk about new and classic novels with your fellow geeks.

This month's selection is Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik.

Miryem is the daughter and granddaughter of moneylenders, but her father’s inability to collect his debts has left his family on the edge of poverty—until Miryem takes matters into her own hands. Hardening her heart, the young woman sets out to claim what is owed and soon gains a reputation for being able to turn silver into gold. When an ill-advised boast draws the attention of the king of the Staryk—grim fey creatures who seem more ice than flesh—Miryem’s fate, and that of two kingdoms, will be forever altered. She will face an impossible challenge and, along with two unlikely allies, uncover a secret that threatens to consume the lands of humans and Staryk alike.

The Sci Fi & Fantasy Book Club meets at the Paseo Verde Library on the 3rd Tuesday of each month at 6pm. See a full list of this year's titles and previous titles here.
