SciFanSciFan is an online database for fanss of science fiction and fantasy books. It was launched in 1999 by Jim Harris and Olivier Travers. In 2001 Harris decided to devote his time to writing, and Travers was joined by his girlfriend Sophie Bellais as co-maintainer. As of 2004 they make up the maintenance team. The site provides detailed bibliographies, linking books together into Series where appropriate and, in turn, grouping Series by Universe.\nBooks are also grouped together into Themes such as "18th Century", "Alternate History" and "Mathematic Fantasy".\nA useful provision is access to lists of new and upcoming books, selectable by month of publication. There is a search facility: entering a word or phrase searches within author names, book titles, series and universes. The site allows users to jump straight to booksellers, both of new books and of used, second-hand books: efforts are made to restrict these to reputable sellers.\nExternal links\n*Main Page\n\nCategory:Websites |

"I do not consider it an insult, but rather a compliment to be called an agnostic. I do not pretend to know where many ignorant men are sure -- that is all that agnosticism means." - Clarence Darrow, Scopes trial, 1925. |
