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.

Next Meeting:

Circe (Madeline Miller)

iCafe (72 Ingram Street, Glasgow, G1 1EX)

In the house of Helios, god of the sun and mightiest of the Titans, a daughter is born. Circe is a strange child - not powerful and terrible, like her father, nor gorgeous and mercenary like her mother. Scorned and rejected, Circe grows up in the shadows, at home in neither the world of gods or mortals. But Circe has a dark power of her own: witchcraft. When her gift threatens the gods, she is banished to the island of Aiaia where she hones her occult craft, casting spells, gathering strange herbs and taming wild beasts. Yet a woman who stands alone will never be left in peace for long - and among her island's guests is an unexpected visitor: the mortal Odysseus, for whom Circe will risk everything.
