WCL has over 600,000 books, 450,000 magazines, and 85,000 cds, DVDs, videos and other items at our central library and 11 branches. We are located in New Zealand's capital city, Wellington.
A shape-shifting black-panther, warring seraphs, a gigantic subterranean organism, a world where 99% of the population is lycanthropic and other oddities abound in our latest science fiction and fantasy picks. My fav is 'Eifelheim', a moving novel in which aliens land in a small German village just before the Black Death hits. Father Dietrich approaches the 'demons' like a natural philosopher, but sometimes he and his mediaeval townsfolk are the more alien to us.
