Wizards and magic. Mystical beings.

Some might say Fiver's visions are magic, and that the rabbits have a god and an evil rabbit, and their view of the world as mythology. They wouldn't be wrong, but in no way do I think this is worthy of a fantasy classification.

To me it's simply fiction, and it still annoys me that others are of the opinion it is fantasy. Nevertheless, they're entitled to this opinion, but if they own a bookstore I probably wouldn't shop there to avoid frustration.
