And then there's the "lyrical" wordsmiths like Sturgeon, Bradbury, or Ellison where form matters as much as function.
Or guys like Dick and Vonnegut who defy easy classification.
Lots of fun to be found among authors willing to, literally, go where none have tread before. And do it well.
SF has enough variation within its borders for a dozen mainstream genres and more.
And, of course, Fantasy has no borders.
