The Encyclopedia of Fantasy is a
comprehensive guide to fantasy in film, television, opera, art,
comics and the highly diverse sphere of literature. Few authors
have the imagination it needs to invent the complex, beautiful
worlds that capture our attention. But when they do, their images
remain indelibly fixed in our minds forever.
