It's a good mix of books, looking forward to reading through them. Definitely ones that I would have tried before so I'm glad I'm getting the different experiences! This one seems quite sci-fi heavy whereas other have been more fantasy so we'll see! This is my 3rd box so I got an extra book which is amazing

I've bought this subscription as a birthday gift (which hasn't been had yet) But what I love about this is that, as anyone who has an avid fantasy scifi fan in the family knows, it's so disappointing when publishers relentlessly repackage the same old top 30 bestsellers. I have been caught out so many times, I don't like disappointing my fantasy fan, plus I don't like that sort of selling tactic. So, knowing these are fresh writers and stories who deserve a chance before pulping is a big win for me. Also, the price of sci-fi and fantasy is sky high. Yeah, I get second-hand when I can, but my family fan is elderly frail, so we worry about viruses and bacteria. For me, getting brand new books £3-£5 cheaper per book than on the high street can only be good.

I love the excitement of opening the box every month, and I am happy with the books I’ve been receiving, but I do think all 3 have been a bit heavy on the sci fi and light on the fantasy, could do with more of the latter :)
Andrew B.
Loved all the books i received cant waot to read them cant waot for my next box
Cheryl H.
It horrified me to think of so many books being destroyed without even being read. I love being introduced to new authors and knowing I'm saving books seals the deal!!!
Shannon A.
I absolutely love this service! And the fact that it actually saves books from being pulped is wonderful! I'm 3 boxes in and I don't think I'll be stopping any time soon
Tania L.
It’s always very exciting opening up my box of stories!
Zoe M.
Make sure the Sci Fi and Fantasy is a good spilt, 50 Sci Fi - 50 Fantasy. One of the boxes I got was very heavy on the Sci Fi.
Sarah-Jane G.
Although I have the fantasy and sci fi box. I'm finding that I'm getting more sci-fi than fantasy. I'd like an even split so that my books are not so heavy on the sci fi side
Chris B.
Absolutely brilliant box this month, love it, keep it coming. Oh, one thing, i do prefer paperbacks. But best box yet.
Lisa W.
Absolutely loved my first two boxes!! So excited for box 3
Andy B.
I normally prefer fantasy to sci-fi, but this box was all sci-if and i was really impressed. The Uploaded in particular really stands out - the world building is amazing!
Anne H.
This second box is a Mich better fit for me than the first box. Very inpressed
Stefani S.
For the scifi and fantasy boxes you should do half fantasy books and half scifi :)
Irina G.
Was really pleased to see a surprise fifth book in the box ☺️
Chris B.
Keep it coming! The recent books have been fantastic. I look forward to my new box of books every month with excitement (and im 44 ffs♂️)

Just wanted say I’m always super excited to receive my boxes. It’s like opening a treasure chest. Books I would never think of reading and have loved. Thank you all
Deanna S.
I was really pleased to get a hardback in my box. My box was much more sci-fi than fantasy this time around, which I wasn't as excited about, but still enjoyed the reads!
Lisa H.
I have had 24 boxes now. I have loved so many of the books. perhaps as a thanks for those that have had many boxes (which I feel 24is!) There could be an additional reward. Such as a book sleeve or book ends or other book related item? I have seen in the boxes of the lucky winners you have done a lovely book fan and ends. So wondered if this could be something included for long term subscribers who say every 25th box might be gifted one? Or another such number. I have to say your scifi and fantasy box has been amazing so wanted to pass on my praise!
Katherine R.
I found the site advertised on Facebook and it seem liked the perfect idea to get to read book I wouldn’t normally pick up in the store and save books. I think I have told most of my book loving friends about the site now and all seem to love the idea super happy
Lisa H.
The science fiction and fantasy box is spot on. The selection of books is fantastic and some are so different from you typical Scifi or fantasy. So far its fantastic and my favourite box!
Tom T.
A great selection this box of books that will stretch my reading. A few more epic fantasy and high fantasy wouldn't go amiss.
Sarah P.
I like the look of this selection a lot. Started on Night Terrors and really loving it - completely my thing! Can't wait to read the rest
Kt R.
Fantastic box, have read one, looking forward to the next!
Lysette B.
Even though some of the books were not what I would normally read, the books from the box that I have read so far I have thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you for expanding my reading list
Anita N.
I was really happy with my box.
Gemma E.
I love the box and the excitement of wondering what you'll get is great. However each of the books I received seem to be Fantasy, it would have been nice to have a Sci-Fi book too. But having said that I do like the books I received and I am looking forward to reading them :)
Fanny S.
I just wanted to say that I loved the Science Fiction & Fantasy box - and so did my partner! It was a great selection of books and I’m excited to read every single one of them.
Josie-Leigh C.
It's nice to see some books that I wouldn't necessarily pick up from the book store myself however I do feel like a lot of them are more Science Fiction based compared to Fantasy based. I've also seen that people sometimes get more Science Fiction than fantasy in some boxes and that isn't something I would enjoy and it would put me off receiving further boxes if it was a full box of Science Fiction (I'm more of a Fantasy lover so I wouldn't mind Fantasy). Other than that, I think it's really good and allows me to explore other authors I might not know.
Miss L.
I absolutely love Abos I get excited everytime my box is due and since I have been receiving them it has broaden my reading
Sarah P.
Really great box. Please continue the sci fi and fantasy boxes!
Emma M.
I wasn't sure about my subscription with the other genre boxes that were available but think I'm here to stay now I can get SF&F! Thank you
Benn S.
Keep up the good work
Mrs W.
I enjoyed The Thousand lives of Ardor Benn and will be buying books two and three of series. Because the fantasy genre has less new releases I imagine it might be harder to avoid duplication. It would be good to know that I can somehow indicate this to you.
Laura S.
The fantasy sci-fi box has been the best box I have received based on first impressions, every book looks interesting and like I would enjoy it. I can’t wait to read them, I would love to see this book as a permanent box option rather than just limited edition
Sharon T.
Loving the introduction of sci-fi/fantasy and getting to discover books of this genre l would not see in a shop unless l was specifically looking for them
Kat N.
I 100% LOVE A Box Of Stories! I think it's a great company and I'm so glad I happened across it! I get to read books that I would never think to even pick up.
Ian H.
This is my second box, its fantastic to receive books I wouldn’t of chosen or seen.
