This has been the coldest April in a long time here in Wisconsin. We have about fourinches of snow, and the power was out for nearly an hour early this afternoon

Probably because most fantasy books these days are in the "romantic fantasy" sub-genre. I'd rather read a "well-wrought tale" any day!Col_Pladoh said:
Heh, the kinfolk from Louisiana wore sweaters almost all the time when up here they missed the couple of weeks of truly hot weather we have with temps in the upper 80s and 90s--sometimes it has his 100 or 101--with very high humidity as well. That is comparable to FLorida's summer weather I am assured.thedungeondelver said:
That sort of writing is as appealing to me as a Victorian Romance novel...Gentlegamer said:
I haven't read any of Haggard's books in many years, but I surely do like his writing. Alan Quartermain, She, King Solomon's Mines, Miawah's Revenge are all remembered with great fondness. I believe he write other stories as well, but I can not remember them, so if I recall rightly, they were not of the caliber of those I can call to mind.Geoffrey said:
Indeed, as far as I know there are no literary parallels of the FRPG adventuring party. My insporation was from wargaming, the mix of arms on the battlefield. Infantry = fighter, rangers/spoes = thief; medical/priest = cleric, artillery/engineers = magic-user.Doug McCrae said:
