Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Next Meeting of the Science Fiction Club, Thursday,
May 11, 2017
Hello Folks,
A smaller than usual turnout at our most recent meeting, with most of us not
liking our book, The Best of All Possible Worlds by Karen Lord. For our next
book, we’ve selected a classic about an expedition into the sun itself in
Sundiver by David Brin, the first book in the Uplift Saga.
The next meeting of the Science Fiction club is on Thursday, May 11, 2017.
Place: Book Nook at:
http://conference321.com/masteradmin/room.asp?id=rs7867a2369e0e
Time: 9 PM Eastern, 8 PM Central, 7 PM Mountain, 6 PM Pacific, and 1:00 UTC.
Our book, Sundiver by David Brin, is available both from BARD, and in Publisher
Quality from Bookshare.
The page to download the BARD version is at:

The Bookshare Publisher Quality version is at:
https://www.bookshare.org/browse/book/1512800
Here is the NLS Annotation:
Jacob Demwa feels that it is time to leave the Center for Uplift and
his research with dolphins and chimps. Opportunely Fagin, his E.T.
(extraterrestrial)
friend, invites him to join Expedition Sundiver based on Mercury to explore
strange
phenomena on the sun.
Bookshare’s Synopsis reads as follows:
No species has ever reached for the stars without the guidance of a
patron--except
perhaps mankind. Did some mysterious race begin the uplift of humanity aeons
ago?
Circling the sun, under the caverns of Mercury, Expedition Sundiver prepares for
the most momentous voyage in history--a journey into the boiling inferno of the
sun.
Come join us on May 11 to talk about this SF mystery, or anything else in
Science Fiction literature.
Evan
