This book is not a fantasy novel, it is an SF novel that masquerades as a fantasy novel in a similar way to Gene Wolfe's shadow of the torturer books. Just because someone uses a sword and uses "magic" (see A.C Clarke's explanation of magic) doesn't make it a fantasy novel. The difference between the two is the mechanics. If you're using "sufficiently advanced technology" you're going down the SF road, which this novel implies all over the place. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.174.124.198 (talk) 22:48, 16 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
