I think most published fantasy novels would fail this test.
I wouldn't take it as gospel, but it is interesting to see what plot elements etc are considered 'worn out' by some people.

That's how I saw him at first: as a fall of light.
Then he walked out of the light.
He didn't seem real to me, just something I dreamed on a hot summer day, as I swallowed water scented with roses and stone.
I saw him before he had any name at all. Patricia McKillip, Winter Rose
