Fantasy Fiction

Fantasy novels feature magic or myth prominently, showing a struggle between
good and evil.  The characters often go on a quest, experience a coming-of-age,
or travel to an alternate world.  Fantasy starts slow while setting the scene,
but picks up speed later as the adventure begins.  Fantasy novels may be
light or dark and are frequently part of a series.
