Unknown Universes: Science Fiction & Fantasy Book Club

About this event

Join us on the 3rd Wednesday of each month at 6 pm for the Unknown Universes Science Fiction & Fantasy Book Club!

In November, we will be discussing Of Monsters and Mainframes by Barbara Truelove.

Summary:

Spaceships aren’t programmed to seek revenge—but for Dracula, Demeter will make an exception.

Demeter just wants to do her job: shuttling humans between Earth and Alpha Centauri. Unfortunately, her passengers keep dying—and not from equipment failures, as her AI medical system, Steward, would have her believe. These are paranormal murders, and they began when one nasty, ancient vampire decided to board Demeter and kill all her humans.

To keep from getting decommissioned, Demeter must join forces with her own team of monsters: A werewolf. An engineer built from the dead. A pharaoh with otherworldly powers. A vampire with a grudge. A fleet of cheerful spider drones. Together, this motley crew will face down the ultimate evil—Dracula.
