Well, maybe. A lot of modern fantasy is in English and hasn't been translated into Swedish, so the reviewer may not have seen it. This country is sometimes a little more insular than you might think.It's definitely the reviewer who hasn't read enough modern fantasy tales. Most of the popular fantasy novels published in the last decade feature only (or mostly) humans. I can't find too many traditionally published novels featuring elves. There are a few with dragons, mainly because they're more animal than actual characters.
