Description:

Escape the Ordinary: Join the Queen’s University Library Sci-Fi & Fantasy Book Club!

Looking to explore new worlds, meet fellow readers, and discover hidden gems from the Queen’s University Library’s Science Fiction & Fantasy Collection? Join our Sci-Fi & Fantasy Book Club – a welcoming space for students who love epic adventures, speculative futures, magical realms, and thought-provoking tales.

Each semester, we’ll dive into two different novels from our curated collection, with discussions that celebrate imagination, curiosity, and the joy of reading. Whether you’re a long-time genre fan, or just sci-fi-curious, this club is for you!

Our First Book: A Sorceress Comes to Call by T. Kingfisher
We’re launching with T. Kingfisher’s award-winning dark fantasy A Sorceress Comes to Call, a compelling reimagining of the Brothers Grimm’s “The Goose Girl.”

Join Us!
