Explications
andyl : This is fantasy for me
Aquila : Yeah, this is pretty classic fantasy, unless you want to put all systematic magic into scifi.
anglemark : Books don't really get to be more fantasy than this.
ejmam : Definitely fantasy
amanda4242 : This is a fantasy novel that is on several existing lists of fantasy novels.
Maddz : Fantasy not SF
waltzmn: Yes, it's fantasy, but if it's on the "Science Fiction" list, I put it on MY favorites list because it's one of the three or four best fantasy series of all time. We need a way to vote it to a fantasy list that doesn't imply it's a bad book!
