October is “we-pick-em” month here at Doof! Media, so we have temporarily wrestled control away from our Doof! Media Patrons in order to pick a book ourselves. Don’t worry, we will return these powers to the senate once the crisis is over. This month, Matt has selected the award-winning Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie.
Here’s the summary:
On a remote, icy planet, the soldier known as Breq is drawing closer to completing her quest.
Once, she was the Justice of Toren – a colossal starship with an artificial intelligence linking thousands of soldiers in the service of the Radch, the empire that conquered the galaxy.
Now, an act of treachery has ripped it all away, leaving her with one fragile human body, unanswered questions, and a burning desire for vengeance.
A science fiction story about A.I.!? Way to reach outside your interests, Matt.
The live-streamed discussion of Ancillary Justice will occur Friday, October 29th at 9:30 PM Central Time over on our YouTube page.
If you’re going to purchase a physical copy of the book through Amazon, we would appreciate it if you do so through our Amazon affiliate link. The book will cost exactly the same to you, but it will help directly support Doof! Media.
