| Re: What actually makes it....
Similar to whats been said already, maybe:
Sci Fi: an altered reality that is presented as having been achieved using theories and/or an understanding of science as described by the author.
Fantasy: An altered reality that in some way incorporates what would be considered impossible.
Which of course doesnt cover everything, Le Guin's Lathe of Heaven would fit both definitions but is usually considered Sci Fi. |
