1) what’s an interesting theme?
2) should it be more science or more fiction?
3) would you want to learn interesting/important facts?
4) would you like it to have romance?
5) should it be complicated, but still undertandable or should it be simple?
6) Do you even like science fiction?
Even if it’s science fiction, it’s sceince so it has to have facts, real things that exist not only fction…
7) does it bother you if the information could be right, but it really isn’t?
Tyvm. I love science fiction and i’m just curious. I’m also a writer so i wanna know.
My sixth grade teacher read us a science fiction book that I am dying to find, but I can’t remember the title or author. I only remember a few details, but maybe some one could help me out. The people find a man washed up on the beach, but he isn’t like us, he is kind of like a sea person/merman. They study him and then follow him back into the ocean, where his city is (Atlantis?) I wish I could remember more. Oh well! Any help?

A book review by the noted literary critic and science fiction aficionado Hans Breitmann, praising Jamie C. Bennison’s latest anthology called ME ROBOT – YOU ALIEN? The short short story “Failure”, which is featured in the book, is read out by Scott mcclellan (University of Edinburgh).
