Book two is 354 pages, and THAT'S the book where Fizzlesprocket is introduced. And 350 pages is clearly a novel, right? Or do I have to combine the entire thing? That is 2,865 pages for the main series and 625 for Fizzlesprocket's spin-off book. That's more than the Lord of the Rings trilogy, probably more than the entire body of work published by J.R.R. Tolkien is we want to compare bodies of work, but since this book was published as an E-Book it doesn't count? Because, it isn't like publishing and the book industry has changed at all since 1937 right?And the other seven series I mentioned just... don't count? I guess it is pretty easy to dismiss the works of Baum on Oz. Or to ignore that Artemis Fowl was not only published, but had a movie adaptation and I think a proposed TV series. Or that the Dark Profit Saga also was pulished in paperback. I don't ignore the difference of scale, but you didn't ask for "give me a gnome that hundreds of millions of people will know" you said "give me gnomes in literature". Well, specifically you wanted "classical" fantasy, which you still never addressed how biased THAT was either. And that's what this is. Bias. Too short to count. Too new count. Published in the wrong format to count. I've never claimed any of these works had millions of followers and were pop culture icons. That wasn't the point.</blockquote>
