Nomadica
Troubadour
I like these answers, gets my creative juices flowing
So I guess what I really love is the mysterious, sinister villain whose true motivations are not knows in the beginning and then as the truth about the antagonist and their role in the conflict is revealed, it turns the tables on the whole thing, forcing you to question who is really the good guy and who is the bad guy.
Did you read The Eternal Champion by Michael Moorcock? If not, you might like it.
No, I haven't. I'm not really a fan of Moorcock. The man was so bitterly hateful of Tolkien and I can't really forgive him for that. Also having read a few Elric stories, I found Moorcock's anti-Tolkien writing aesthetic to be unsatisfying.
