Had my eye on The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever (or whatever) for years now, and just started reading it. Very wordy.

I'm not into it far enough yet, so I can't answer. It starts in our modern world though, and then the main character is transported or something to some other world. I guess that's where the Unbeliever part comes in. I try not to look stuff up before I read it, so I can't tell you yet.

Buffalobo, do you consider High Fantasy and Epic Fantasy to be the same thing?
