    Sci-Fi Book Discussion: The White Mountains by John Christopher

    Join us in person or online for this month's Science Fiction Book Discussion for The White Mountains by John Christopher.

    If you are new to this book group and are not a member of our mailing list, join the Science Fiction Book Discussion mailing list to receive the Zoom link.

    In the first book of John Christopher's classic series, it is the year 2100, and the world is controlled by the machines called Tripods. Life goes on largely as it had in the pre-industrial era, as all of humanity is subject to mental controls that prevent anyone from challenging the established order.

    Will, a 13-year-old living in the small English village of Wherton, is looking forward to the transition to adulthood, which will take place on the next "Capping Day" - until a chance meeting with a mysterious Vagrant named Ozymandias sends him on a quest to discover a world beyond the Tripods' control.

    Join us for our next meeting on January 15, 2025 for Cascade Failure by L. M. Sagas.
