Islamic Spec Fic

 After exploring ways to define a new sub-genre of speculative fiction - Islamic SF - in two of my earlier articles (linked elsewhere on this journal), and after discussion with other writers and readers, I think I have fine tuned the definition in my article, Islamic SF: An Overview, published today at Inter Nova.

(Anonymous): Islamic SF, An Overview

That was an excellent article. Very clear. I liked the side comment that the 1001 Nights do not represent Islamic writing. Obviously, those are based on old folk tales just like the Grimm fairy tales do not represent Christianity but rather old folk tales.
