Greetings from 2015, the year Marty McFly goes back to the future. And that’s about all any of us know yet about 2015 … except for you secret time travelers out there. [Insert more time travel New Year corniness here].

TIME TRAVEL BOOK CLUB

JANUARY:

One Red Thread by Ernie Wood One Red Thread, by our own Ernie Wood, follows Eddy as he tries to fix one mistake after another, dominoing with his ever-growing knowledge of the past. Lincoln gives this one a very high approval rating and bought multiple family members copies for Christmas. So let’s find out what all the fuss is about and join the discussion with Nathan at: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

You’re welcome to join us for the story of the week in The Time Traveler's Almanac by Ann VanderMeer The Time Traveler's Almanac or just whenever we’re reading something you think you’d like. Here’s our reading schedule: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/.... My husband nearly bought the paper version of this book for me tonight, forgetting he got it for me for my birthday a few months ago. Luckily, my GoodReads comment update saved him from buying the ebook for me again. I guess I was destined to read this book no matter what. For January, we’re reading the following:
•12/28: Richard Matheson’s “DEATH SHIP” - turned into a 1-hour Twilight Zone episode - 15 pgs (Discussion: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...)
•1/4: Geoffrey A. Landis’ “RIPPLES IN THE DIRAC SEA” - won the 1989 Nebula Award - 10 pgs (Discussion: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...)
•1/11: Robert Silverberg4338]’s “NEEDLE IN A TIMESTACK” - movie screenplay written by George Huang - 13 pgs
•1/18: ’s “ANOTHER STORY or A FISHERMAN OF THE INLAND SEA” - 27 pgs
•1/25: Alice Sola Kim’s “HWANG’S BILLION BRILLIANT DAUGHTERS” - 6 pgs

FEBRUARY:

The Peripheral by William Gibson The Peripheral by William Gibson. If you’re thinking of getting this from the library, you’d probably better place it on hold now; it’s fairly popular. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

NEW TIME TRAVEL BOOKS BY GROUP MEMBERS
The Chronothon by Nathan Van Coops The Chronothon by Nathan Van Coops a.k.a. First Tiger is out in February but is available now for pre-order. You’ll wonder why nobody thought of a scavenger hunt race through time before now, and you’ll enjoy every moment of a race that starts in ancient Egypt and features everything from pirates to space zombies. This one, I think, has real movie potential. I give it 5 stars. And you’ll have read it first: http://www.amazon.com/Chronothon-Time...
