various fantasy fiction
stories, this book shows that it is not
/the tropes and cliches that make a story
good or bad but how the author applies them.
The book also explores the concept of text
versus meta-text^that is, when the story s
world and character actions contradict the
reader s expectations based on the tropes being
used· Covering authors from Mercedes Lackey
and Brandon Sanderson to Christopher Paolini
and Stephenie Meyer, the author finds that it is
the nature of tropes and the language used that
make a fantasy story, for bad or good.
