What's The Difference Between Fantasy And Science-fiction?

Answer Question

2 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Two different genres. Fantasy mainly deals with trolls, dwarfs, knights, castles, gods, witches, fairies, enchantments from different mythology and an era long forgotten. Science Fiction mainly deals with, modern high-tech gadgetry. Some writers like to mix the two genres, but it seldom works out. I try to read one or the other and stay away from the mixed-genres.

      Science Fiction most often takes place in a future time period and includes scientific elements. Fantasy is often set in an imaginary world setting that seems to be in a past time period and includes magical elements.
      However, there are many sub genres of each including, but not limited to: Urban fantasy, steam punk, hard science fiction, dark fantasy, etc.
