There is some light rubbing to the edges of the dust jacket as well. "The gates and other items in the stories are based on advanced technology, and there are no magical or supernatural elements presented, so the works can technically be classified as science fiction. But the books feature several tropes common to fantasy, including medieval-type settings and low levels of technology on the worlds depicted in the novels, a feudal-like relationship between the main characters, and medieval-style warfare and weaponry. For example, Morgaine's principal weapon, though it incorporates advanced technology, has the appearance of a sword. In the tradition of heroic-epic swords, it has its own name, Changeling. This blending of technology and elements more common to fantasy often results in the books being labeled as works of "Science Fantasy." Indeed, on the author's own Web site she lists them under the heading of "Fantasy Novels," not "Science Fiction." " (from Wikipedia) 2 132 #42842 $10
