[LM_NET] Another thought on Genre

[Cheryl Whitmore Stevens <cwstevens@EARTHLINK.NET>]

Another question for you. Cassandra Clare's Series The Mortal Instruments should 
really go under Fantasy because it is not about what "might" happen in the future, 
but instead involves creatures such as vampires, etc. However, most people think of 
fantasy with medieval type settings and science fiction with robots and all. If I 
put this as either one, I will miss getting some students who would enjoy these 
books. Other books that I think fall into this category are Harry Potter, Rick 
Riordan Series,and others. Again, any thoughts?
