Types of fantasy

• There are 3 different ways that fantasy writers set up their worlds.

• Some novels begin and end in a fantasy world (for example The Hobbit or A Wizard of Earthsea).
• Others start in the real world and move into a fantasy world (for example Alice in Wonderland or Peter Pan).
• A third type of fantasy is set in the real world but elements of magic intrude upon it (for example Mary Poppins or David Almond’s Skellig).
