So fantasy:
Adrian Tchaikovsky - Brilliant. It's a Kinden Surprise (aha, aha, ah. No? mmm, fewer Kinden puns then I guess)
Pratchett, of course, and really looking forward to the new Watch series coming out on the small screen.
The Fionovar Tapestry Trilogy. So overlooked, but a delight to read. So emotionally well written that as a survivor, I've only ever been able to read sections of the end of the first book once.
N K Jemisin who's works are mind-blowing. . .1/?
@SakuraNoSeirei Kameron Hurley’s Mirror Empire series is really good as well, and Joe Abercrombie’s “Best Served Cold” (along with other books). Also a big fan of Richard Morgan’s “Steel Remains” trilogy for unabashedly queer epic fantasy.
Thanks for this list - I’m either nodding in fanboy agreement or adding to my amazon list...
