Not enough epic fantasy fans have read this series! Morgon and Deth's travels looking for the High One are classic! Deth is the greatest bard in fantasy IMHO. Beautiful prose by Mckillip. Available in a couple of collected editons. I have the old school Riddle of the Stars, but here is a newer edition here. Pictured below: . |
Just released last year, and ridiculously well written, Clarke wrote a masterpiece her first try. Magical. |
One of the few books I can't imagine anyone not liking. Combine history, mythology, time traveling, and humor. Powers generally delivers all the time. |
Generaly speaking I like all of Carroll's work but will admit his best was his first. The Land of Laughs features the plight of Thomas Abbey, and wil ltake you for a spin that really is unique to Carroll's work. One of the most underated authors with a lot of good novels out in fiction IMHO. |
Regardless of the long wait, I want to thank Martin for giving more mature epic fantasy readers something to read and enjoy. A Feast for Crows is the book I am anitcipating mroe than any other at the moment. IMHO clearly the best epic fantasy being written right now. |

Moorcock's third appearance, no Elric yet:) Peake-like, story about a moancrh queen he rules an empire and her personal problems:) |
Ultimate sci-fi vengeance series. Each novels chronicles the hunting down of a seperate Princes (criminals) by Kirth Gersen that enslaved his village as a child. Vance's second listing. |

My second Harrison listing. You simply have to read this novel about 3 friends who together took part in a cult ritual, and 2 of them ahve been haunted since. if your familiar with Harrison, you know you simply have to read this; as an explanation woudl take some paragraphs. Dark; unforgiiving, smart read. |
Recommended to me by an author; incredibly about a man who reanimated statues of Gods in a museum and gets drunk with them. Hilarious, comedic classic. |
Like Leguin's Lefthand of Darkness/Earthsea comparison, I love Zelanzy's Amber work but think Lord of Light is his masterpiece. Second Zelanzy listing. |
Classic Sci-fi, POV chapters doen each with unique delivery and style. Based on the Keats poems, really a modern classic in Sci-fi, loosley paying hoamge to the Canterburry Tales. |
My second Moorcock listing is absolutely monumental, a work of genius whose influence is still relevant today in specualtive fiction, following Jerry Cornenlius who is (one of teh few tiems Amazon says it best:an "English assassin, physicist, rock star, and messiah to the Age of Science". If you by one Moorcock work buy this here, NOW! |
Moorcock is just perhaps, all stigma relatd to fanatsy aside, one of te hrgeat writers on of the last century IMHO. Involves character (more info) in my next listing below from the Cornelius Quartet. |
