The Glasgow Science Fiction and Fantasy Bookgroup

Please be aware, we have had reports that emails have been sent to authors asking for money to be featured on this site and discussed by this group. If you have come here from a link in such an email please ignore it. We are an group of like-minded souls who meet in person once a month to discuss Science Fiction and Fantasy and have never offered any kind of incentive to feature in our monthly discussions. Despite or many discussions we still have plenty to be getting on with! Feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

Flynne Fisher lives in the rural American South, working at the local 3D printing shop, while earning much needed extra money playing VR games for rich people. One night she dons a headset and finds herself in futuristic London-a sleek and mysterious world, alluringly different from her own hardscrabble existence. But this isn't like any game she's ever played before: Flynne begins to realize it isn't virtual reality... it's real. Someone in London, seventy years in the future, has found a way to open a door to Flynne's world. And as utterly beguiling as London is... it's also dangerous. As Flynne searches to discover who has connected their worlds, and for what purpose, her presence here sets dangerous forces into motion...forces intent on destroying Flynne and her family in her own world.
