Ah, a Fantasy fan!GandalfTheFey wrote:The Lord of The Rings.
The Hobbit.
The Silmarillion.
To Kill a Mockingbird.
First 3 books of ASOIAF.
Ender's Game.
The Forever War.
The Last Unicorn.
A Wizard of Earthsea.
Ever read Godstalk, by P.C. Hodgell, or Dance of the Goblins by Jaq D. Hawkins? I suppose neither is old enough to be considered classic, but definitely appeal to the same readership.
