another quarter heard from...

A pretty good list, though I wouldn't recommend all of it.

Nobody so far has mentioned Glen Cook? His Black Company trilogy is a classic! Other stuff varies in quality from comparably good to unreadable.

Another favorite I don't think has been mentioned is Tim Powers, especially The Anubis Gates and On Stranger Tides.

I tried to read Frankenstein once. Life is too short.

About a million children's books are worthy fantasy stories. Lloyd Alexander's The Black Cauldron comes to mind, but there are many.

I didn't notice any mention of Lovecraft (wrong genre?) or Howard.

I just read John Ford's The Dragon in Waiting (historical fantasy) and Casting Fortune... great writer.

John Crowley, too.
