A second for 'Forgotten Beasts of Eld' one of my all time favorites. Add 'Beauty' by Robin McKinley (she decided to revisit it, but I like the first go better). The Magician Knight books by Gene Wolfe. I may be able to think of something not mentioned tomorrow, many are already posted. |

"The Sword of Truth" series by Terry Goodkind. I loved the books, but the TV adaptation was horrifically bad, and I applaud the decision by the network to axe the show. |

I'd like to list a bunch of others, but my vote (even over LotR) would be: The Once and Future King
by T.H. White |
| Patrick Sexton | 03 Jun 2010 8:57 a.m. PST |
And I would like to re-nominate "Grunts". Jeez… And do the Barsoom novels count as fantasy? If so,I would like to nominate them. |
| Richard Humm | 03 Jun 2010 10:56 a.m. PST |
Another one I missed – The Castle of Iron by L.Sprague de Camp and Fletcher Pratt The other Harold Shea books The Incompleat Enchanter and Wall of Serpents aren't novels, so they can't get a nomination. |

The Well at the World's End by William Morris. link |

I thought Mary Gentles "Grunts " was very
entertaining and have read it several times. It is actually my all time favorite after
LOTR and the Hobbit. I have noticed before that it usually gets
knocked here on TMP and I have allways
been curious why? Coabeous |

Yeah, my bad Inari 7! That should have been Elfstones of Shanara, not Wishstones of …. :-( |

Cook's Dread Empire and Black Company series..
All of REH's Conan
Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser stories by Leiber Martin's first two Fire and Ice were good… the rest.. not so.. and I can't believe no one has mentioned…. Bill King's Gotrek and Felix novels!!!
Gotrek is my favorite dwarf… Joe Collins |

Another vote here for Pratchett's Discworld series, although I've only read a few of them so far. Just started reading the second book in the series. Another vote for Megan Whalen Turner's "The Thief" series. Tanith Lee's "Kill the Dead" is still one of my all-time favourites, but mostly for nostalgic reasons. |
