What is the best fantasy book (or series) written before 1975?
The semifinal rounds go FAST. I'll have the results of this poll posted by Sunday and the next semifinal round up on Monday. So don't dilly dally. Vote today!
And while I know the laws of large numbers have begun to determine that a certain number of people won't read anything but the preview text and the poll before commenting that oh how could their very favorite fave not be here, please consider that 1) this is only half the titles ("Oh my god how could The Chronicles of Narnia not make it????" They did. They'll be on the second semifinal.), 2) there were rules that disqualified titles (particularly series titles that didn't conclude until after '75), and 3) we arrived here through a nomination process, and I controlled literally NONE OF IT but rather my readers made all the decisions, so if a title never got nominated, acting like it is a crime to the genre might make you look a little foolish, and maybe you should chime in a little sooner next time.
Don't forget you get three (3) votes, but that there is no ranking, so using as few votes as possible is better.
The poll itself is in the lower left at the bottom of the side menus.
I'm told if you're on mobile you have to click "webpage view" then scroll alllllllllll the way to the bottom, you can find the poll.
