It is not uncommon for stories to be similar, especially stories that both take place during the same time period. Stories that take place in the same time period are sure to have similar characteristics and traits just for the simple fact of historical facts and theories. Some writers might even use ideas from other writers to enhance their story and make it more exciting for the reader. Though many stories are alike, just as many are different.
