Finding Your Perfect Sci Fi or Fantasy Book

NPR did a poll among listeners this year and came up with a list of the 100 best science fiction and fantasy books.  Then SF Signal did this fabulous flowchart about how to choose among those 100 best books.

























And then, since it is impossible to see the flow chart on our computer screens, SF Signal did another great thing--they made it into an interactive resource where you answer various questions, and it brings you to the perfect sci fi/fantasy book for your taste.

So I'll admit that most of these books are not really for the middle school reading/maturity level.  But this was just such a cool thing I had to add it.  Also, even if your middler schooler never uses this to find a book, it is a great example of a fairly large, but clear, decision tree.
