Ever since ancestral storytellers drew myths and monsters, lost worlds, dragons, and heroes from the very mist of their imaginations, fantastical tales have allowed us to visit magical worlds "beyond" while nestled comfortably in an armchair. This is the stuff dreams are made of and where the past gives way to Fantasy of the 20th Century. From Beowulf to Bilbo Baggins, Shelley to Lovecraft, Doyle and Poe, author Randy Broecker chronicles the world of fantasy, offering a wide-embracing view of the genre, revealing how the fantasy story has evolved over the centuries into the entertainment found in modern-day books, comics, and films.
