In Readers in Wonderland, Deborah O'Keefe discusses the work of more than 80 fantasy fiction writers, and shows why their tales have proved to be so compelling, particularly in recent years. Readers in Wonderland covers a wide range of fantasy fiction, from William Steigs's small picture books to J.R.R. Tolkien's epic series; from utopias like L. Frank Baum's Oz to dystopias like Virginia Hamilton's Dustland; from lesser known works to the phenomenon that is Harry Potter.
