I'll definitely try to hunt that one down in our libraries, it sounds entertaining.

I only got around 28 because I don't know yet how many of the subplots I plan to include need own instalments or can be crammed into the first instalment.

The journey as well as the "entering another world"-thing really got me - as far as I know, these are so popular they've evolved into something like subgenres. I've even read an article on the travelling one somewhere - although I am not sure what they ended up naming their genre. Wiki does not list them as subgenres, though, and I can't remember where I read that.

I like that your hero does not stay with the first woman he claps eyes on - that happens so often it really should be on that list.
