[QUOTE="Crothian, post: 5550346, member: 232"] No you don't. :D That's not what I define as Urban Fantasy so our definitions are different for the term. From Wikipedia "Many urban fantasies are set in contemporary times and contain supernatural elements" and "The prerequisite is that they must be primarily set in a city." So, I look at fantasy set in cities but also modern times like Dresden Files, Mercy Thompson, Weather Wardon series, Kelly Armstrong Women of the Other World, Kim Harrison's series, Anita Blake, and others like those. Edit: And I'm not saying one definition is more correct just that we are obviously not thinking about the same exact genre when we hear the term. [/QUOTE]
