Greetings. Name is Perpuk. I don't know anyone who likes the genre as much as I do, so I thought joining a community of like-minded folk would be a good idea. I am a bit shy, so probably won’t post as much as I should, but I’ll try.
I have always preferred Science Fiction & fantasy to any other genre. I’m no spring chicken and I cut my teeth on Andre Norton & Robert Heinlein books & old TV shows such as Doctor Who, Lost In Space, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, Space Patrol, Supercar, Stingray, Astroboy etc.
Current TV shows I watch are: Stargate SG1, Stargate Atlantis, Battlestar Galactica, Lost, Carnivale, Enterprise, Firefly (only just being shown here).
Past favourites include just about every Sci-Fi show ever made (but not all)- Doctor Who, Blakes7, Space 1999, Battlestar Galactica, Seaquest (DSV & 2032), Star Trek Next Generation, Star Trek Voyager, Buffy, Angel are some.
I have a large collection of books and like many authors but C.J. Cherryh, Jack Vance & Alan Dean Foster rate high on my list.
I am currently re-reading Brian Stableford’s “Hooded Swan” series, and eagerly awaiting this week’s instalment of SG1, Atlantis, BSG & Lost.
Can hardly wait for the new Doctor Who (after all, I grew up on the original), but really hope they don’t change the TARDIS control room too much.
Hope this serves as a reasonable introduction. I’m looking forward to some interesting discussions.
