After a summer break, it is time to begin what is (amazingly) the 24th season of our reading series.  And we will start off with some amazing writers! A mystery writer who has crossed the genre border to write science fiction, and a science fiction writer who has written mysteries. 

Further, this kick-off will be an experiment in venues -- our first event outside of lower Manhattan at the beautiful Commons Brooklyn at 388 Atlantic Avenue, right near the the Hoyt-Schermerhorn subway stop and the Barclay Center.  (Pay no attention to the offices of the radio station on the third floor.)  We will return to the SGDA in October.

Walter Mosley Walter Mosley is the author of the bestselling mystery series featuring Easy Rawlins, as well as numerous other works, from literary fiction and science fiction to a young adult novel and political monographs.  Mosley is the winner of numerous awards, including an O. Henry Award, the Anisfield-Wolf Book Award, a Grammy, and PEN America’s Lifetime Achievement Award. He lives in New York City.



Paul di Filippo Paul di Filippo has published over thirty books. Perhaps his most well-known are THE STEAMPUNK TRILOGY and RIBOFUNK, but he's very proud of them all, even his CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON sharecrop novel, TIME'S BLACK LAGOON. He lives in Lovecraft's burg, Providence, Rhode Island, with his mate of nearly forty years, Deborah Newton. He has been working--or not working-- on a new novel UP AROUND THE BEND for way too long. He hopes he is at the midpoint of his career.

The New York Review of Science Fiction Reading Series provides performances from some of the best writers in science fiction, fantasy, speculative fiction, etc.  The series usually takes place the first Tuesday of every month, but maintains flexibility in time and space, so be sure to stay in touch through the mailing list, the Web, and Facebook.

We will have cheese, crackers, and cider on hand, plus the Jenna freebie table for all; and a raffle for any who donate.

After the event, please join us as we treat our readers for dinner and drinks nearby.  (Venue to be determined.)
