"Science Fiction vs Science Fantasy

Most often, people are generally confused between what is Science Fiction, and what is Science Fantasy. Although both may involve seemingly futuristic technology and events, a Science Fiction story is completely dependant on real developing trends in technology as well as scientific processes, whereas Science Fantasy simply does not. As a matter of fact, take the logic and technology out of a Science Fiction tale, and the story literally falls apart. With Fantasy, however, this is not the case. It is the flow of the story and the excitement of mythical concepts that are center piece, not the technology involved. Therefore, it can be translated to any time frame using devices and powers of just pure make-believe. This is not bad, but the reader must, however, accept what flies in the face of common sense. Two prime examples of this contrast would be my book, Beyond Mars – Crimson Fleet, a Science Fiction thriller, verses George Lucas’ tale, Star Wars, a Fantasy yarn.

Now don’t get me wrong, Stars Wars was a great movie. (I do believe, however, the Star Wars books leave much to be desired.) What made Stars Wars popular, was the special effects associated with the movie. This is what people always remember. But if one takes the time and looks honestly at both Beyond Mars – Crimson Fleet and Star Wars, the differences of Science Fiction verse ScienceFantasy stand out like day and night."
