Perhaps a separate genre should be developed?

And that would be...? A genre of one isn't really a genre... After all, since LotR started the Fantasy genre (or at least made it popular and profitable) it doesn't seem like a terrible thing to categorize it with it's successors. In a way, tt's like saying that because some descendents aren't as noble or intelligent (etc.) as their forefathers, the connection should not be acknowledged.

Actually, at my library Tolkien is in regular fiction, though we do have a large Fantasy/Sci-Fi section. But my library also has the nearly R-rated PG-13 movie in the children's section, so I wouldn't say we have it "right". [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
