Hi everyone,

*The Expanse* is a sprawling 10 book series that explores the unknowns of the universe and the cost of human ambition. It is well-written and masterfully translated to the TV series (streaming on Amazon). If you haven't watched the series yet, do yourself a favor and read this book first. James S.A. Corey (actually a pen name for a collaboration between Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck) writes a deeply personal and engaging story in the first novel of the series.

Book of the Month
Leviathan Wakes - James S.A. Corey (2011)

This is a hard book to put down. I'll bet that, upon finishing it, you'll want to dive headlong into the next novel.

Well, good news! Book Club takes a break every October to focus on the Brooklyn SciFi Film Festival (and Meghan and my birthdays ☺️). SO we're giving you space (hehe) to read on if you'd like.

Alternatively, we will be reading Ian M. Banks' *The Player of Games* in November. It is technically the second book in Banks' *Culture* series. You may choose to read the first book, *Consider Phlebas,* in October, instead. *Phlebus* is a good book in its own right, but we're going to skip it for now. *The Player of Games* will not spoil too much of the *Phlebus,* and you do not need to have read it to like *Games.* But, something to consider when you're planning your reading plans for October.

To join a Book Club meeting, all you will need is YOURSELF. If you haven’t had a chance to finish the book, we still would love for you to join us in the discussion.
