> Okay guys, here's the plan. I'm doing an independent study this term in modern American fantasy, and I need a reading list. I need at fewest about six works of modern American Fantasy literature, and perhaps some other stuff (movies, et al) to round it out. Any suggestions? I'm looking for a fair spread of stuff that I haven't already read... the one thing already on my reading list is the Dragonlance chronicles (autumn twilight, winter night, spring dawning, and summer flame), but I'd be uneasy about using more than one for the course... suggestions, anyone?

The Seventh Son by Orsen Scott Card.
It takes place in early America, some were comeing up on the Civil War period, but still about 30 years or so before that. It is the first book in a saga, but also stands on it's own. It is also rather short, which would be good if you are reading 5 other novels.
