I would go so far as to call it science fiction. It began as a kind of mystery/thriller as Grant tried to figure out what happened to his uncle. Once the group departed, the story began to resemble a sci-fi and fantasy novel.NetMassimo wrote: ↑20 Jul 2020, 07:24 This novel is a bit borderline as the lost world theme was famous before modern science fiction existed, so I'm not surprised that the sci-fi element became explicit only in the second part. Possibly the novel is targeted to readers who usually don't read science fiction.

The narrative eventually took a turn into science fiction at the very end after the wolf/human interactions started. I believe it determines the thin line between science fiction and fantasy enough.

You are absolutely correct, i rarely see a science fiction without fantasy attached to it, i stand to be corrected.
