Quatrième de couverture

More than forty years ago, J. R. R. Tolkien, in his essay "On Fairy Stories", stated the case for the vital role of fantasy in offering us escape from the drabness of the "real world". Since then, his words have been borne out by the tremendous popularity and increasing unfluence of this fascinating genre.
