Science fiction novels and other kinds of entertainment can often lead us into dystopian futures that mostly leave optimism and sunshine behind. And the merging of sci-fi and horror is a combination that may result in even darker tones.
Lena Nguyen just had her first novel published — “We Have Always Been Here” — and it fits comfortably into that sci-fi horror genre.
The book is set on a spaceship with a psychologist at its center, and relationships between humans and androids play a key role.
The Show spoke with Nguyen to learn about the novel and how it got started.
