On February 29, 2026, Gene Turnbow will be doing a public appearance at the clubhouse of the Los Angeles Science Fantasy Society, the world’s oldest continuously meeting science fiction club. He will be reading from Juniper Fairchild and the Alterwhere and selections from his upcoming anthology Tales from the Alterwhere.
The reading will be featured during a regular meeting of the club. Doors open at 7 pm. The meeting starts at 8 pm.
The attendance fee is $5 for members and nonmembers alike. The address is 8819 Reseda Blvd. Northridge, CA 91324. Parking is one block north behind the commerce center.
LASFS has been meeting on a continous basis since its founding in 1934. The club’s history is incredible, and some of the most famous science fiction and fantasy authors to ever grace the publishing industry have been members. Members have included (and in some cases still include) Forest J. Ackerman, Ray Bradbury, Fritz Lieber, A.E. Van Vogt, Alan Dean Foster, BJo Trimble, Henry Kuttner, John DeChancie, Ray Harryhausen, Robert A. Heinlein, Larry Niven, Jerry Pournelle, Gregory Benford and Steven Barnes.
It’s an honor to walk among the same book stacks where these giants have trodden, and I’m looking forward to seeing you there. Perhaps you’ll want to join the club yourself.
See you there!
