Description
The titles for this month are All Systems Red and Artificial Condition by Martha Wells
Science Fiction (All Systems Red): After hacking its own governor module and overriding its programming, security droid "Murderbot" ends up saving lives instead of ending them -- but only because letting all the humans die would interfere with its favorite activity: binge-watching some 35,000 hours' worth of entertainment media.
Science Fiction (Artificial Condition): A sentient robot with only vague memories of the massacre it committed that gave it the name "Murderbot" teams up with a Research Transport Vessel named ART (you don’t want to know what the “A” stands for), to find out what happened. What it discovers will forever change the way it thinks.
Come join us for the book group "Infinite Worlds", Ridgefield Library's Science Fiction and Fantasy book group! Each month we will alternate between Science Fiction and Fantasy titles. No prior knowledge of these genres is necessary, just a love of reading and a desire to talk about books! This book discussion will meet in person on the third Thursday of the month from 6:00 – 7:00 pm in the Library’s Randolph Room. Technology/Innovation Librarian Kathy Pickle will facilitate this group.
