I appreciate the note about your book, but i might be the only one who will ever see it
oh, and for me ( who is an aspiring to be a fantasy writer, yet the idea of writing scares me ) it depends on who your trying to get your audience to be, for example there is a diffrence between people who read Eragon and people who read WOT
allso, intresting is good, I think that one or two fantasy authors come up with a brilliant idea, then others mold slightly off thier books and so on till you have crap, then a new author comes along and the proccess repeats.
thats why you had stuff like GRRM in the ninties which ecoes stuff from 40 years ago to now with Twilight, which came out of what books like, The War for Oaks 20 + years ago (and GRRM is not crap, he is AWSOME he just takes a little long to write than most people)

and if you want your book to be noticed more contact fantasy blogs like FBC or grasping for the wind (is that the right name???)
