The Ultimate Encyclopedia of Fantasy

David Pringle

earliest edition we have, 1998 Carlton Books Ltd, 2006 hardcover 304 pages

Lavishly illustrated and expertly informed it details everything the novice needs to know about the genre and everything the well-read fan is calling out for. This encyclopedia divulges just what constitutes fantasy and where the parameters lie, and celebrates the finest and lesser-known works that make up the genre, be they books, movies, television shows or iconic images.
