Books, music, tv

Finding your path through fantasy and science fiction.

There are so many amazing things to watch, read, and listen to.

It is a big world, and there is a lot of media to be interested in. I find that if you have a great starting point, such as a great TV show, you can find books and music that compliment it. Here are some selections and starting off points for great books and music. Let me know what you think and if there are some I missed.
