This question dawned on me yesterday as I was messing around with world concepts – has there ever been a book series that goes from a fantasy setting and, as books go on, evolves into a more sci-fi setting? I asked some friends and they asked me to elaborate a bit, so I tried explaining it like how the Star Wars books in the Legends timeline span thousands of years – but I was thinking more of that with a time before lightsabers. Like in theory a character from Book A could be mentioned in Book R but as someone that existed some two thousand years prior, in a sense. I hope that all makes sense.
