This group meets on the 4th Friday of each month to discuss various works of "modern" masters
or upcoming talent in SF, fantasy, paranormal, horror and related genres. It also occasionally
explores classics and the 'masters' of the classics. This month we discuss Coalescent by
Stephen Baxter. Now, joined by his boyhood friend Peter McLachlan, who arrives in Rome with a
dark secret of his own, George uncovers evidence suggesting that the women of the Order have
embarked on a divergent evolutionary path. But they are not just a new kind of human. They are a
better kind, genetically superior, equipped with all the tools necessary to render homo sapiens as
extinct as the Neanderthals. And, chillingly, George and Peter soon have reason to fear that this
colony is preparing to leave its overcrowded underground nest. . . . For more information about

Rogue Trader is a game of space adventure, set in the grim darkness of Games Workshop's
Warhammer 40000 universe. Join us as part of an up and coming Rogue Trader dynasty, and
make your mark in a new sector of space, as the Imperium of Man expands into the frontiers of
the Lupus Cluster. While the Empire's Lupus Crusade attempts to subjugate the renegade
humans and aliens of the Lupus Commonwealth, your explorers will attempt to wrest a profit from
this new region of space, and trump your rivals at the Great Game of Houses. Exciting battles in
space, brawls on different planets throughout the region, and opportunities to acquire wealth
beyond the dreams of avarice await you in the tumultuous war zone of the Lupus Cluster
Crusade. The one question you have to ask yourself is, "Are we the wolves in the fold, or merely
the sheep?" For more information about the location visit: www.panera-nj.com.
