For those into science-fiction, Richard Thomas has a new book out right now on that very subject titled Sci-Fi Worlds: Doctor Who, Doomwatch, Battlestar Galactica And Other Cult TV Shows.
Since I wrote a book titled Science Fiction Secrets a few years ago, Richard interviewed me for his new title, along with numerous others, as you'll see below.
Here's the publicity blurb for the book:
Internationally renowned blogger and writer on the
paranormal, science fiction and conspiracy theories, Richard Thomas takes the
reader on a tour through the galaxy of sci-fi worlds that have dominated our TV
screens over the past 50 years. Along the way he interviews Nick Redfern, Nick
Pope, Lex Gigeroff and others.
In this fascinating ebook, Richard Thomas explores the deeper meanings behind some of our best loved TV science-fiction shows. He looks at Dr Who, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, Doomwatch, and many others. He explores the themes used in the programmes, from time travel to transhumanism and explains some of the hidden meanings of the visual imagery shown on screen.
