this is hands down the fucking shittiest book I have ever read
I would think that the Fionavar Tapestry, about then-contemporary college kids drawn into a fantasy realm, would rate as "urban fantasy."
I agree, The Fionavar Tapestry is clearly an example of crossover fantasy...urban fantasy, as you say, imposes fantasy elements on an urban "real world" setting, rather than the other way around (ie, characters from the "real world" travel to a fantasy setting).

Working on expanding this... Cadence3 ( talk) 05:57, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
As written, the third sentence of the article describes all the books Mr Kay wrote between the Fionavar books and Ysabel as taking place in the same world, but they didn't. Tigana, A Song for Arbonne and the Jad books all are set in milieux reminiscent of mediaeval Europe, but they are three different milieux. I am going to pluralise "milieu" in the sentence to reflect that. Binabik80 ( talk) 18:02, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
