DAILY SCI-FI
Not just rockets & robots...
"Science Fiction" means—to us—everything found in the science fiction section of a bookstore, or at a science fiction convention, or amongst the winners of the Hugo awards given by the World Science Fiction Society. This includes the genres of science fiction (or sci-fi), fantasy, slipstream, alternative history, and even stories with lighter speculative elements. We hope you enjoy the broad range that SF has to offer.

My name is Vanessa Mitchell...
My name is Phillip Dorn...
My name is Arthur Riley...
My name is Trina Scotts...
... I'm just an average teenager...
... I'm not your average teenager...
...I've got a big secret...
...I wasn't always human...
...I'm not from around here...
... I just assumed I was normal...
... and now I have to save the world.
... and now I am ruler of the fairy folk.
... and now I have to bring peace to the Andromeda galaxy.
... and now I have to be the chosen one.
... and now I have to defend this dimension from invaders.
...and now I have magic powers.

It may seem like the odds are against me...
It may seem that I don't have a shot...
It may seem like nothing that special...
It may seem like I need all the help I can get...
It may seem like this was meant for someone else...
It may seem like your average summer adventure...
... but one day everyone's going to know my name.
... but one day I'll regain my memory and learn who I really am.
... but one day I will be a true warrior.
... but one day I will unite two worlds.
... but one day I will find my father.
... but one day I will free my people.
