Okay lets start a new thread.
I've more or less stopped buying fantasy novels by new authors mainly
because there seems to be little novelty about them. (ALthough a trip to
the
local library can find me some new ones.) Is this because there is a
finite
set of ideas that can be used? Is it that my local bookshop only sells
what
will sell? Or is it that authors only write what will sell?
What new ideas could be developed? (Blue stones are banned.)
