Fantasy/Anthologies/{Author}/{title}
Essentially, multi-layer tag-based folders.

There isn't a way to do it now, but at some point in the not far distant future you will be able to use custom fields in the templates. You would create a column named 'genre' (or whatever), populate it accordingly, and then use it to create the folder structure you want.
Using this scheme (and remember that this doesn't work yet), you could use a template
{#genre}/{tags}/{author}/{title}
I am assuming that the genre would no longer be in the tags. I am also assuming that a book does not have more than one genre, or that it would be OK if the folder name contained all of them.
Out of curiosity, when using this scheme, how would you ever find a book? Each differing combination of tags for a genre would create a different folder, which could result in a *lot* of folders, and also very long names. You will need to either remember the tags for a particular book, or navigate up and down the folder hierarchy looking for it.
