Fantasy series poll resurfaces

The list, compiled by SF Site, ranked series based on votes from readers. It offers a snapshot of fantasy tastes more than two decades ago. Big names like Robert Jordan's "The Wheel of Time" and Terry Pratchett's "Discworld" dominated the top spots. These series remain popular, demonstrating their lasting appeal. Some series on the list, while well-regarded at the time, have seen their popularity wane. This highlights how tastes and trends within the fantasy genre can evolve. The reappearance of the poll has prompted discussion on which modern series might make a similar list today. It also raises questions about the criteria for "best" and how different generations perceive fantasy.
