Definitions of Science Fiction
Thought-provoking collection of attempts to describe the essence of SF from such gurus as Asimov, Heinlein and, um, Kingsley Amis.

The Klingon Language Institute
A stylish site for Klingon speakers and students (you don't have to be a linguist or a Star Trek fan, but both help) which offers the chance to hear and see the language and browse online grammars and dictionaries. They've already translated Hamlet and are limbering up for the rest of Shakespeare. Extraordinary.

The Locus Index to Science Fiction
Vast bibliographic listing, with summaries and ratings, of SF work (books, stories, art) published since 1984. An invaluable resource.

Out of This World
Interesting and informative "exhibition" of Canadian SF and fantasy which covers authors and also questions the many sub-genres of SF. Well worth a browse.
