Which genre in fiction do you like better fantasy or Syfy.
Sci-Fi, the world has enough fantasy in the form of religion...
Sci Fi is number one for me, fantasy is second choice.
Hard sci fi but only really the old stuff, Asimov and the like. I'm sure I'm missing out on lots of newer fiction though.
OMG you should get some Dan Simmons into your life.
Impossible choice. Neal Stephenson is my favorite so probably sci-fi, but I love fantasy too!
I write Science Fiction (primarily hard but occasionally stray into the softer forms), Urban Fantasy, Urban Paranormal, and Light Horror. I can enjoy High Fantasy, but it needs to be well written with minimal language gimmickry.
I also enjoy Science Fantasy, but I don't write it except in humor pieces. Reading it is not a problem.
I enjoy science fiction and urban fantasy about equally, but I don't read as much high fantasy (the typical sword and wizard stories).
Depending on my mood at time , I like both . Generically speaking , I find the fantasy garb more interesting , and they can add creatures not likely to ever been seen in ordinary life . Hard science fiction , is full of possibilities , and often tells of things that do indeed eventually come true . Technology has changed reality greatly during my lifetime , and there are more changes to come . I'm reasonably certain hard science fiction contributes to the reality of our future .
