Editing Techno-thriller (section)

== Style ==
Techno-thrillers focus strongly on details, especially on the technology, which is frequently of military origin.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Kaltenbach |first=Chris |date=2 October 2013 |title=Clancy invented 'techno-thriller,' reflected Cold War fears |work=[[The Baltimore Sun]] |url=https://www.baltimoresun.com/2013/10/02/clancy-invented-techno-thriller-reflected-cold-war-fears/ |access-date=15 April 2014}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |last=Minzesheimer |first=Bob |date=3 October 2013 |title=Appreciation: Tom Clancy mastered the techno-thriller |work=[[USA Today]] |url=https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/books/2013/10/02/tom-clancy-appreciation/2908305/ |access-date=15 April 2014}}</ref> Techno-thrillers tend to have a broad scope in the narrative, and can often be regarded as contemporary [[speculative fiction]]; world wars are a common topic. Techno-thrillers often overlap, as far as the genre goes, with near-future science fiction, [[War_novel|military fiction]], and [[Spy_fiction|espionage fiction]].<ref name=":1">{{Cite news |last=Boush |first=Sam |date=19 July 2018 |title=Crypto, Sci-Fi, Soldiers, Spies (and Disasters): 5 Varieties Within the Technothriller Genre |work=[[Writer's Digest]] |url=http://www.writersdigest.com/writing-articles/by-writing-genre/varieties-of-the-technothriller-genre |access-date=19 July 2018}}</ref> To the extent that technology is now a dominant aspect of modern global culture, most modern thrillers are "techno-thrillers" in broad sense, and the genre is somewhat diffuse. Techno-thrillers blur smoothly into the category of [[hard science fiction]]; the defining characteristics of techno-thriller are an emphasis on real-world or plausible near-future technology. There is often a focus on military or military-political action. Techno-thrillers also overlap with [[conspiracy fiction]] and [[apocalyptic fiction]]. While techno-thrillers borrow concepts and ideas from other forms and styles of other genres, notably science-fiction and its subcategories, it is a fresh and still developing style with it being more of a hybrid genre, more closely related to thrillers and technology. Since technology is always changing, that brings a fresh take on techno thrillers with advancement always on the scope.<ref name=":0" />
