I have to say that my favourite maps have all been tied to great stories.

I remember dreaming about Earthsea with Le Guin and wondering at a world made up mostly of islands.

I think the biggest map in my head was the Lord of the Rings Map. I read The Hobbit first and I remember being impressed that the whole first book was such a small part of Tolkien's world. His story and world held so much that it seemed very real. The artwork was great too. Both maps were minimalist line art of great sensitivity. They reflected the sense of the stories they were illustrated and felt right.

I wonder sometimes if the lustrous full colour almost photo realistic maps are too much? Then I allow myself to be spoiled and just enjoy .


Today I have to say my favourite fantasy map is probably...

the Next One....

Each time I find it.
