Fiction

Fiction was literature in the form of prose. Fiction was antithetical to facts and data, (TV: The Long Game) or true history. (TV: Castrovalva) Fiction was thus often seen as unreliable (TV: Black Orchid) or indeed "silly", "just stories" not worthy of serious consideration. (TV: Human Nature)

Books (TV: Black Orchid) and pulp fiction (TV: The Gathering) were examples. By the 51st century, fiction was also distributed by holovid, direct-to-brain downloads and fiction mist. (TV: Silence in the Library)

The Book of the Enemy was a book which erased its readers from history, turning them into fictional characters. (PROSE: The Book of the Enemy)
