#364, "Good fantasy!"


          

I'm looking for a new good series to read. Wondering what people's favorites are out there...

Things I recommend:

A Song of Ice and Fire by George R.R. Martin

The Kingdom of Thorn and Bone by Greg Keyes

I have a soft spot for the Sword of Truth series even if it has gone the way of Ayn Rand.

I'm a huge sucker for anything touched by Simon Green. It's pulpy, I know, but I looooove it.

At the urging of my fiance I recently finished the ten books of the Nine Princes in Amber series by Roger Zelazny.

Lastly (it's kind of girly fantasy) but I really just enjoyed Cast in Shadow and Cast in Courtlight by Michelle Sagara.

So what else do people recommend to read? These aren't the only things I've read, but they really stick out to me right now,
