rosalita: I don't think of alternative history books like Farthing to be science fiction, but that might just be me.
anglemark: Alternate history has long been classified by scholars as science fiction.
ejmam: Alternate history is SF, especially if it isn't alternate because magic

Explications
Morphidae: They are all police procedurals/mysteries set around 2060 New York. Some of the first novels also have romance, It also has off-planet flight, floating/flying cars, laser weapons instead of projectile weapons, virtual rooms, ubiquitous service droids as bartenders/maids/sex partners, probes that can tell you the exact time of death, etc. Of course it's science fiction.
ejmam: How is a book with hover cars, space installations,etc. set in the future not science fiction? Is Caves of Steel not SF because it's a mystery?
