The Talossan Science Fiction, Fantasy & Whisky Society (La Società Talossan dal Siensiă-ficziun, del Fantasieu es del Wiski) is a literary and social club dedicated to the appreciation of speculative fiction and distilled fermented malted barley. Variously described as a "Most Ancient and August Order" and as a "High Church," membership is casual and open to all Talossans who participate in discussions on the society's Wittenberg forum.
History
The society was founded in 1998/XIX by Ián Anglatzarâ. Originally called the Talossan Science Fiction & Whisky Society, the organization's name was changed to reflect its expanded literary scope in the 2010s. Following a period of inactivity, it was reconvened by Antonio Montagnha on 10 April 2022/XLIII.
Activities

- Flatland by Edwin A. Abbot
Past Newsletter
