Definition of the "Science Fiction Genre": The focus of this subgenre of fiction is science and technology, especially as they will possibly exist in a future time.  Some of the typical aspects of a Science Fiction ebook are time travel, future worlds with technology that may not even be contemplated at this point, aliens and other life forms, and travelling in space.  What separates the Science Fiction subgenre from the Fantasy subgenre of fiction is that the imagined or invented elements of a Science Fiction novel typically have more of a probability of existing.  They are based upon scientific principles, not principles of magic.

 

Some examples of bestselling ebooks in the Science Fiction genre are Frank Herbert (Dune), Isaac Asimov (Foundation), Orson Scott Card (Ender's Game) and George Orwell (1984).

Jubilee Year: A Novel (Erelong Book 1)

by Gerard O'Neill

The dark swirling core of a single empty eye stared back at them. Black beyond all blackness. It sat on the edge of the world as if content not to slide beneath the horizon. Gaping out them in all its emptiness. A nothingness around which captured starlight streamed.
A fearsome beautiful oval of silver and ebony. Like Al Hajar Al, the black stone of Mecca lying on its side. Michael could not tear himself away. He was weeping.
Sergeant MacKay struggled to maintain his grip on reality. One part of him wanted to run until he found a hole to crawl into. He was trying. Oh, he was trying so very hard.
"Where's the Sun gone?"
