Getting fantasy out of the Dark Ages
Getting fantasy out of the Dark Ages
It’s no secret to anyone who knows my tastes that I love fantasy. Even my taste in science-fiction serves that point, with “Star Wars” honestly having more in common with fantasy than sci-fi where it matters. And yes, like many others, J.R.R. Tolkien stoked that love at a young age for me with “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.” Tolkien is one of my favorite writers and will always be one of them, his command of language alone being enough to hold that place in my heart.
