Summary
The fictional world of Titan is the setting for the majority of the Fighting Fantasy titles. There are three main continents (Allansia; Khul and the "Old World") and other remote locations such as the Isles of the Dawn and Arrowhead Islands.
Allansia is apparently the largest continent and the setting for many of the earliest Fighting Fantasy titles. The city-state of Port Blacksand (City of Thieves), town of Fang (Deathtrap Dungeon) and the Icefinger Mountains (Caverns of the Snow Witch) are all located in Allansia.
Khul is a continent to the south, and is dominated by the Wastes of Chaos, a huge internal desert rife with monsters. Several of the Fighting Fantasy titles set in remote locations (Scorpion Swamp, Chasms of Malice and The Master of Chaos) occur in Khul.
The "Old World" is the last continent, being a largely civilized land mass divided into several kingdoms. The kingdom of Analand is the setting for the Sorcery! series.

Famous quotes containing the word summary:
“I have simplified my politics into an utter detestation of all existing governments; and, as it is the shortest and most agreeable and summary feeling imaginable, the first moment of an universal republic would convert me into an advocate for single and uncontradicted despotism. The fact is, riches are power, and poverty is slavery all over the earth, and one sort of establishment is no better, nor worse, for a people than another.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“Product of a myriad various minds and contending tongues, compact of obscure and minute association, a language has its own abundant and often recondite laws, in the habitual and summary recognition of which scholarship consists.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
