Are there any good fantasy novels apart from LOTR

[Anonymous No.14308177]

I want pure fantasy, nothing like Narnia where the kids go from England to a fantasy world I want something that starts and ends in the fantasy world.

I was the same age as Harry when all the books were released. By the time of the 5th book I found them idiotic to read, I tried to listen to the audiobook to finish the series but I couldnt keep attention

Tolkien is overrated. Look at dunsany, macdonald, burroughs, vance, leiber, zelazny and howard for a start.

Excellent list but horrible order for this zoomer. Should be starting off with stuff like howard, I can't imagine anyone talking about harry potter and eragon being able to truly appreciate or even understand eddison or dunsany's prose.

[Anonymous No.14308753]

The Divine Comedy and Paradise Lost

[Anonymous No.14308765]

>>14308724
And a quick google of any one of those names would have given him dozens of novels to pick through. I am not a boomer amd assume basic computer literacy from my peers. Nigger.

I'll bet Morris designed that book cover too. Looks like his work. He was as famous for his wallpaper as for his writing.
