I read this book in High School - I found it again recently - It is fiction but based on a TRUE story of the death of the Princes - it is so Interesting - Historical Fiction - But a Mystery based on historical research

I did search the topic and just trying to broaden it a little into types of literature and poetry if not I’ll close it out.

I am an avid reader…It’s not the blood, but stories that run in my blood…
different people, different settings, different places…It’s like travelling without a ticket and every time the destination is a wonderful surprise and the journey is an amusing experience…
I read all the time… I like all genre (though I am still exploring some)
My last read was “Inheritance games”

I don’t think I have? I’ll have to look - I have read Hemingway - don’t like him much.

I have someone I know that is CRAZY for John Steinbeck - Grapes of Wrath - not my fav either but can be very deep reading

Science Fiction. Asimov, Bradbury, Heinlen, Bear, Farmer, etc. There are so many. I can’t think of all their names right now.

What is your favorite Bradbury?

OMG! I can’t even remember the name. It was a short story. About someone left all alone on a planet. They waited and waited for someone to come and get them. In despair, he sat there at the spaceport,waiting and waiting. In the end, years, and years later a ship finally came. It took awhile for the lost one to recognize rescue was there. It wasn’t until the ship lifted off that they finally energized enough to give chase. His soul burst from his body and chased the ship.
(He had died and his soul had been stuck there all those years, waiting.)

SciFi isn’t just technology. It’s also Psych and sociaL studies. … ‘what if…’ :smiley:
