Ghouls, Goblins, and Aliens: SFFH Book Club

Welcome to Ghouls, Goblins and Aliens, our new Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror reading group. Your hosts, May and Roxane, will guide you through what’s great, what’s new, and what’s completely underrated, every month until the end of the world (mwhahah, etc. etc). Our September choice is Launch Something! by Bae Myung-Hoon and translated by Stella Kim. A South Korean sci-fi novel that is full of political satire, innovative world-building, and a unique narrative style.

Please note: This book group is for 18+

Earth is experiencing a sweltering heatwave caused by a second “sun” – a shining object in the sky that either looks like Pac-Man or a pizza missing a slice, depending on who you ask. As this object increases in size and risks making Earth uninhabitable, the Korean government decides it has to do its part and help the US-led Allied Space Force.
