BtB: Genre Bending & Breaking

This week on Beyond the Book, we go looking for the difference between bending a genre and breaking it. We get into why some blends are overloaded, with rules that make the two halves cost each other something, and why others are just a coat of paint over a system that would run identically without them. Occasionally the collision produces something that could not have existed any other way, and nobody can quite agree on why that one worked.
