Physics and magic. Elves and aliens. Fantasy and sci-fi. What’s the difference? If you showed a BluRay player to a caveman, he’d call it magic. If you showed a spell-book MIT professor, he’d call it science fiction. While fantasy and sci-fi seem like opposite ends of the literary spectrum, the lines between them can get as fuzzy as the business end of a peach. Some authors have decided to reconcile the two genres’ seemingly insurmountable differences, birthing a hybrid called “sci-fi fantasy.” Or maybe “fantasy sci-fi”? Like magic and science themselves, the genre is defined depending on how you look at it. But no matter how you like at these novels, we can all agree they’re the 10 best sci-fi fantasy books of all time.
The Broken Earth Trilogy
(Orbit)Set on a supercontinent plagued by climate disasters called “fifth seasons,” N.K. Jeminsin’s triple Hugo award winning Broken Earth series is a trilogy of seismic proportions. In the caste society of The Stillness (the continent’s name) the energy manipulating orogenes sit at the very bottom – hated and feared for their abilities. After a particularly powerful orogene caused the most devastating fifth season in recent memory, three orogene women are forced to deal with the social and geological fallout. While the novel appears like a fantasy story on the surface, dig through the dirt and you’ll find the remnants of a technologically advanced civilization buried beneath. It’s a cautionary tale of what happens when people attempt to control a planet, and when a planet fights back.
