This particular photo’s not by me, but thanks!
If you like Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings then you’ll love THE BROOMWHISTLE CHRONICLES. You get to meet Uncle Pindby and his Detective Academy for Near and Distant Relations. You meet also THE DWILL – a curious new group on the scene of Science Fiction and Fantasy and their improbable war against the creatures in MONTROLLA.
will there be more bookclub meetups? If so.. what’s the current book selected right now?
We meet the 2nd Monday of every month. We are meeting this evening to discuss “The Graveyard Book” by Neil Gaiman. Check this link for the next book/meeting: http://www.chicagonerds.com/bookclub/
