    Earth Unaware by Orson Scott Card with Aaron Johnston is the story of first contact with the Formic. Never mind that many fans have been the stiffest critics. As long as you as you bare the bad break at the end, it's one of the better sci-fi stories out this year. http://bit.ly/SXjOzJ

    RichBecker Fahrenheit 451

    Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury sets a blaze as it's made available as an e-book for the first time. The merit of 451 remains its ability to look beyond the dystopia and into the paradoxical nature of people. http://bit.ly/rFMBn0

    glindaharrison As a former Liberal Arts Major, this cracked me up!

    I actually used to refer to the Bronte sisters as the Brontesaurus sisters (based on a funny line in a science fiction book).
