Don't have time to fully engage this cause I've read a lot of portal fantasy (Narnia, Xanth has elements of it, various humor/fantasy by folks like Margaret Ball, Thomas Covenant of course, etc.) but I want to mention that this is an entire manga genre, too, and I've read some of those. I'd say the BEST example (not that that's what you're aiming for) is "From Far Away," but "Red River" is excellent too. The worse? Probably Stephan Donaldson. Oh, Thomas Covenant, why?
