Explicações
sarahemmm: Bujold herself calls this space opera, but it is science fiction in that it is about how people deal with a situation that is different from our present. In this case, a world which reverted to the 19th century meeting FTL travel.

Explicações
Aquila: I think of them as more science fiction than fantasy, especially if they fork from one small change.
rosalita: I don't think of alternative history books like Farthing to be science fiction, but that might just be me.
anglemark: Alternate history has long been classified by scholars as science fiction.
ejmam: Alternate history is SF, especially if it isn't alternate because magic

Explicações
andyl : This is fantasy for me
Aquila : Yeah, this is pretty classic fantasy, unless you want to put all systematic magic into scifi.
anglemark : Books don't really get to be more fantasy than this.
ejmam : Definitely fantasy
amanda4242 : This is a fantasy novel that is on several existing lists of fantasy novels.
Maddz : Fantasy not SF
waltzmn: Yes, it's fantasy, but if it's on the "Science Fiction" list, I put it on MY favorites list because it's one of the three or four best fantasy series of all time. We need a way to vote it to a fantasy list that doesn't imply it's a bad book!
