"The most commonly seen element appearing on fantasy books published last year was, it seems, the sword," Holman observes. "Closely followed by glowy magic, castles, and dragons. I suspect a few covers contained all these elements. Meanwhile, fans of unicorns, maps, and stilettos had a disappointing year, and perhaps were lost to other genres." This, from Media Bistro.
