Well, I live in Quebec, so I am not so close to actual french literature. Im not even sure if I ever read a fantasy book written by a french speaking author before. What drew me towards more classic fantasy is the fact that I would very much like to become an author myself. So I am going back to the roots. Previously, I had read a good portion of the Royal Assassin's saga, by Robin Hobb (I am currently in the middle of the second cycle) and the three first tomes of Earthsea, by Ursula k. Le Guin. In between that, I read other books in different genres. Some of them were by authors from Quebec, but not fantasy.
