NEW TOPIC (But still need help)

Done a tabletop round (that is they get the sheets on the table rather than me read them out - usually because of pictures etc). This one is fantasy maps

I have
Wind in the Willows, Neverland / Peter Pan, Middle Earth / Lord of the Rings / The Hobbit, His Dark Materials, Wizard of Oz, Dante's Inferno – The Divine Comedy, A Song of Fire and Ice/Game of Thrones, Winnie the Pooh, Discworld/Ankh-Morpork, Earthsea by Ursula le Guin, Chronicles of Narnia, The Lion/the Witch and the Wardrobe.

Any more ideas? The map should be fairly recognisable, preferably the frontispiece etc (so official), and available online.

I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

This is sort of fantasy - although the places are all real in Cheshire - From the Weirdstone of Brisingamen by Alan Garner ( I grew up between Macclesfield and Macclesfield Forest and knew it well).
It's all about King Arthur's knights sleeping under Alderley Edge and the Wizard of Alderley.

The map is in the book.

I went through Alderley Edge once, managed not to get charged for looking at the houses.

Vaguely already considered Hyboreaa, wondered if too niche

Best question (From Monty P, Live at Drury Lane.) ?

Quizmaster..." Which great opponent of Cartesian dualism, resists the reduction of psychological phenomenon to a physical state and insists there is no point of contact between the extended and the un-extended ?"

Mrs Scum...."I don't know that !"

QM.."Well, have a guess."

Mrs S...."Erm, Henri Bergson."

QM.."Is the correct answer !"

Mrs S.."Cor, that was lucky, I've never even heard of him."
I'll do this later
