Finding the right words to describe what we write is a dilemma many
fantasy writers face as the the genre is so wide open.It is unfortunate that fantasy novels and fantasy stories are listed with science fiction when they really have very little in common.
Barring minor miracles, and an unlikely volte -
face from both Jackson and the Tolkien estate over the
writer's other
fantasy works, this will be the last time we hear the pitter patter of tiny Hobbit feet down the local multiplex, a prospect that will drive some to despair, but fill others with relief.
