I really enjoy a good fantasy book, so looking up a few today got me excited.
It is my birthday in less than two weeks and that means people generally want a list of things you want as a gift (gifts are so hard). So today, I finally got around to making one (online, how handy).
I never know what to ask for my birthday, so I just end up asking for books. This year, I'm asking for a few books, written by my favorite writers. I also found a few other interesting books, so I threw them in there to get to know new writers aswell.
The writers I'm most excited about and the books I'm asking for:
Michael J. Sullivan
Michael J. Sullivan wrote the Ryria Revelations series, one of my favorite, if not my very top favorite book series so far. He has just released his first book of his new The legends of the first empire series: Age of Myth. I'm very excited to read this one.
Brent Weeks
Brent Weeks wrote The Night Angel trilogy, which is also one of my favorite book series. I have not read his other series yet: Lightbringer, so I'm asking for the first book, called The Black Prism.
Terry Goodkind
Terry Goodkind wrote the Sword of Truth series, which I found, after seeing the series The legend of the Seeker, based on his books. I read all of them. While I didn't enjoy all of them equally and there were some slow parts, I did really love the story as a whole. His latest book, Death's Mistress, is a spinoff from the previous books and it features a few characters we already met before. I'm very interested to see the quality of this book, but from what I've read so far, it's a step up from the last books of the series, so I'm excited!
The two wildcards on the list are:
Juliet Marillier - Dreamer's Pool
Sarah Beth Durst - The Queen of Blood
I don't know these writers yet, but the stories sound interesting and the reviews seem promising. I'm still waiting for Patrick Rothfuss to release the third book in his The Kingkiller Chronicle series, but I've given up hope on that ever appearing by now.
Do you enjoy fantasy books? Which ones would you suggest I read?
