((Okay, I will confess, it does cheese me when I come across a reviewer who simply hates all fantasy. I had hoped that kind of literary snobbism was extinct, or nearly so. Maybe not.))

No, it’s not extinct, it’s rampant.

Even worse there’s plenty of it even WITHIN the Fantasy fandom.

I saw a fan calling Fantasy a “guilty pleasure”. And that’s from someone who’s this side of the fence of prejudice.
