[Parmandur]

I must say, this thread worked out much better than the "pile on Tolkien" cluster of the first. Good show!

“It would be a shame if you were killed. I should be very sorry. I know I wouldn't like it to happen to me.”

Eilonwy is the best princess.

This was more, "Pile on George R.R.R.R.R.R.R.Arghhhhhh. Martin because HE HAZ NO PAGEZ!" thread.

"Haz no pagez?" What does that mean?

I think this thread was less contentious because most people's favorite author was in Appendix N, so this thread was like choosing second place.

Also, a lot of these authors came after the advent D&D, so there was less arguing over each authors' true influence on the game.

Eilonwy is the best princess.

Eilonwy is the best protagonist. Maybe not officially, but anyone reading those stories knows that she was the smartest, toughest, and most resilient of all the main characters. Sort of like Wang in Big Trouble in Little China. To have a female be the true hero in the 1960s was way ahead of it's time.
