Produktbeschreibung

The Classic Fantasy Collection is a journey through the golden age of fantasy, bringing together some of the most enchanting, thought-provoking, and influential stories ever written. Published by Blackmore Dennett, this collection weaves together timeless adventures, dreamlike landscapes, and unforgettable characters—tales that shaped the fantasy genre and continue to inspire readers today. From whimsical fairy tales to dark allegories, from epic quests to surreal visions, these stories capture the boundless possibilities of the imagination.
Included are George MacDonald’s Phantastes and Lilith, mystical and poetic works that explore the nature of reality and the soul, alongside William Morris’s The Well at the World’s End and The Sundering Flood, foundational texts that pioneered the themes and structures of high fantasy. Charles Kingsley’s The Water-Babies blends fantasy with social commentary, while Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass offer playful, surreal journeys through lands where logic bends and the impossible becomes reality. L. Frank Baum’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and The Marvelous Land of Oz transport readers to a land of magic and adventure, while Edith Nesbit’s The Enchanted Castle and The Magic City introduce children to worlds where the ordinary and extraordinary collide.
But this collection ventures beyond the well-trodden paths of children’s fantasy. William Hope Hodgson’s The House on the Borderland and The Night Land create haunting, otherworldly landscapes steeped in cosmic horror. David Lindsay’s A Voyage to Arcturus explores the nature of existence through an eerie and surreal planetary journey. G.K. Chesterton’s The Man Who Was Thursday blends mystery, satire, and the fantastical in an intricate philosophical puzzle. Ernest Bramah Smith’s The Wallet of Kai Lung and Kai Lung’s Golden Hours transport readers to an exotic world of wit and adventure, while Kenneth Grahame’s The Wind in the Willows offers a quiet magic in its celebration of friendship, nature, and timeless wonder. And, of course, J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan invites readers to Neverland, where childhood dreams and adventures live forever.
Spanning realms of whimsy, peril, wonder, and the unknown, The Classic Fantasy Collection is a tribute to the imagination’s endless horizons. These stories continue to resonate, drawing readers into worlds where magic is real, danger lurks, and every journey leads to discovery. Whether rediscovering beloved classics or uncovering forgotten gems, this collection is an invitation to step beyond the ordinary and lose yourself in the pages of fantasy’s greatest works.
