2012 Sci-Fi Experience in Review

The 2012 Sci-Fi Experience ends tomorrow!  For those of you who missed my original post, the challenge started in January and I have been participating since beginning this blog (here's the review site).  It has been great fun, a really well hosted challenge and I now have quite a lot of books I want to read.  I entered the scene a little late, but was able to contribute 5 reviews.  Anyone looking for their next book should go check out some of the 170+ reviews.


Here are some of my favorites from the challenge, though there were very many really great reviews:

32. Cheryl @ Tales of the Marvelous (I, Robot)

60. 'Against the Fall of Night' by A. C. Clarke (Snake Oil Review)

93. L (omphaloskepsis): Old Man's War by J. Scalzi

98. LittleRedReviewer (The Wanting Seed by Burgess)

110. The Guilded Earlobe (Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep)

I just signed up for the 2012 Science Fiction Experience!  It's a part of the blog Stainless Steel Droppings and it runs this year from January 1st to February 29th.  People from all over link to their review of their latest science fiction experience, be it books, movies or whatever.  It isn't a challenge and has few rules, and I'm glad I'll be able to participate.  I'm a little late in the game but with a book a week I should be able to contribute my fair share.  Definitely go check it out, and don't forget the review site (check review #91!).

I didn't know about it until after I finished The Mule but there is also a group read-along (ending February 5th) of Foundation and Empire if you want to see what other people thought of the book.  There are some good questions and more thorough insights than I offered so get over there.
