   In past years, I borrowed several excellent fantasy stories at the public   
   library . The annoying thing is that now I can't rememebr the titles, and   
   the books seem to have disappeared from the shelves... Now I would make a   
   point of noting down the name of any truly good fantasy writer. They aren't   
   all that common, as we know.
