Conclusion: Future Worlds

Abstract

Drawing together a number of consistencies found within the four hypertext fiction novels, this concluding chapter outlines the theoretical and analytical implications of this book and evaluates the effectiveness of its Possible Worlds Theory approach. Offering directions for future research, it will also suggest that other forms of digital fiction might benefit from the approach profiled in this book. Finally, it will suggest areas in which Possible Worlds Theory requires further development for its application more generally.
