Science Fiction  
Science fiction is an interesting genre because it uses real physics and science to create believable narratives that adhere to the basic laws that govern our everyday lives. As technology becomes an ever greater part of our lives, science fiction is essential for reflecting on the various consequences, often taking current trends and extrapolating their ramifications into the future and exploring their impact on culture and society.  - Cole, Redbery Books, Cable, Wisconsin

Fantasy
The great thing about the fantasy genre is not only the pure creativity involved in conjuring new worlds and fantastic characters, but the epic scope and deep immersion into new realities. J.R.R. Tolkien created new languages and centuries of history to support his compelling Lord of The Rings series. Many fantasy authors include maps of their fictional realms to ground the reader in a new time and place. The author need not worry about the limitations of physics or the boundaries of the believable. In fantasy novels, the imagination achieves its greatest potential and the journeys we take inspire us to think beyond the boundaries of our own world.  - Cole, Redbery Books, Cable, Wisconsin
