One of my all time favorite authors is Cornelia Funke. Every book she has ever written I absolutely love. A German author who writes fantasy, Cornelia has done worlds for the genre she writes in. Her books have caught the attention of millions. Fantasy is typically only read by kids and weirds adults, but Mrs. Funke has drawn hundreds of adult into fantasy with her fascination stories.
While several say, though she is a wonderful writer, her endings are too realistic for fantasy. In that, they do not end on a perfectly happy, fairytale ending. Rather they end bitter sweet. This does nothing but attract me more to them. I dislike sad endings and perfectly happy endings are not my favorite either, but I love a good bitter sweet ending.
