The SF Gateway is an initiative of the Orion Publishing Group, home to the UK's oldest science fiction publisher, Gollancz. It was launched this autumn with more than a thousand titles and will build to 3,000 titles by the end of 2012, and 5,000 or more by 2014.
As a website, SF Gateway is part catalogue site, highlighting and promoting the thousands of eBooks the imprint publishes; it is part gateway to the online retailers from whom these eBooks can be bought; part social network for readers who wish to discuss and recommend authors and books with their fellow enthusiasts; and part commentary/blog site.
The site will allow fans of Science fiction and fantasy to find classic titles that they might not have come across before. I think this is a great tool and having already had a nosy round the site have come across so many books I'd never even heard of - I can't wait to find my next read on there!
