The Essence of a SciFi Story

I have avidly read science fiction since before it was considered literature. In high school, I couldn't do a book review on a favorite sci fi novel because it "wasn't a novel". Now days it is fairly well respected (though a lot of it seems to be fantasy but don't get me started on that).

In any case, I love this flow chart. There is so much more to sci fi than this, but this is so close to whole sections of the genre that you just have to laugh. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
