BTW, I would direct HQ types to Robert Holdstock, who has a nice touch with mythological themes. Mythago Wood is a good place to start though it begins in the modern world.
A fine fantasy that has been lost in the shuffle is Moonwise by Greer Ilene Gilman. The prose style reminds me of Joyce (more Portrait of a Young Man) and it also has a great Otherworldly feel
