How:
Cross-fertilising genres gives awesome results like the SF spy novel and the supernatural romance. The panel discusses why these combinations are so very good, and attempts to identify the point at which cross-fertilisation becomes dilution, and genre turns into aesthetic. At what point is steampunk all steam and no punk?
