i didn't even realize that the term 'portal fantasy' existed, but i suppose for a generation raised on narnia and alice in wonderland the appeal of the genre makes a lot of sense. the premise is already compelling - doors are inherently intriguing, right? - but combining that with a set of sympathetic characters (well, and some that are far less so) with conplex relationships makes for an all-around great read.
