Fantasy with Sci-Fi Past

[Fiberglass Cyborg]

"The Book of the New Sun" very much has the feel of a fantasy world, yet it's actually set on a far-future Earth.

 

[Peppa]

Sterling E. Lanier's books about Hiero.

 

[Toby Frost]

The book-within-a-book that Hitler writes in The Iron Dream by Norman Spinrad would fit this description, too.

 

[The Big Peat]

Jordan's The Wheel of Time is effectively this too.

Also M John Harrison's Viriconium is very much this.

 

[aaaron_m]

"The World Set Free" by H.G. Wells.

 

[Peppa]

Jordan's The Wheel of Time is effectively this too.

Also M John Harrison's Viriconium is very much this.

I thought about mentioning Wheel of Time, too, since that world obviously had high technology before Breaking. But as far as I remember, those technologies had something to do with Aes Sedai magic. So I didn't know if I should mention Wheel of Time.
