A Couple of Articles of Interest

Leo Grin at Big Hollywood has started writing a series essentially about the greatest fantasists and how their work is considered when compared to the likes of George R.R. Martin and other modern fantasists. Fascinating reads really, because he seems to have done his research!

This first link is for his article "The Bankrupt Nihilism of Our Fallen Fantasists"

http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/lg...olkien-part-1/
And then there is his second article: "Sanity and Sanctity: The Ennobling Fantasy of J.R.R. Tolkien Part 1"


Looking forward to your thoughts (and to his continuation of the article series!).
