Speculative Fiction
According to Masterclass.com, speculative fiction is a literary “super genre,” which encompasses a number of different genres (science fiction, fantasy, paranormal, supernatural, dystopian, etc.) with speculative elements that are based on conjecture and do not exist in the real world. Sometimes called “what-if” books, speculative literature changes the laws of what’s real or possible as we know them in our current society, and then speculates on the outcome.
