Fiction

[qos]

I'd like to know which works of fiction you've read which you feel best reflect your own experience with magic, the gods, the unseen realms.

Which authors either openly admit to being magical practitioners, or give the distinct sense that they know more than they're admitting to?

Which books are otherwise are entertaining reads, but have description of magic, the unseen, and etc. that are obviously not the work of someone who really understands such things?

Thanks!
