EClayRowe 871 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 I'm unsure of the proper mechanics of submitting a poll here, but I'm launching a book club for Christian science fiction in March. There will be a "classic" and a "modern" read each month. I will have nominations in later months, but Oxygen by John Olson and Randy Ingermanson is the modern selection for March. So: Out of the Silent Planet (CS Lewis) or A Wrinkle in Time (Madeleine L'Engle)? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zee 2,317 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Both are excellent, but I'm going for "Out of the Silent Planet" for your debut classic read. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest kiwigummy Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 aw, man. I haven't read either one. I'm curious what classic Christian Sci-Fi is like. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Elaine 6 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Love C.S. Lewis, so Out of the Silent Planet is my pick. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest SelinasBonfire Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 I tried a couple of times, but I could never get into A Wrinkle in Time; but I am a fan of Lewis, so Out of the Silent Planet of course. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nicola 1,759 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 If you do Out of the Silent Planet, will you do the whole series? Yes, that one gets my vote too. Are you going to feature non-famous works too? Undiscovered authors? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A "sequel vs. sequel" is very possible as a theme for later months. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
