I really need to put more in on the fantasy side of the house. Besides the usual suspects of LoTR and Black Company. So here we go.
A mix of trad and indies. Then again, of all trad pub I still get a fair amount from Baen Books.
Sometimes depending on my mood, I either gravitate towards "Overload of Magic" type fantasy, alt Earth fantasy, or what I call, "Hey this has some Conan types in it." Some low tech environments Rich backstory, a bit of bombastic action. Love Witchy Eye to bits. And the rest of these books caught my eye within the first few chapters. At this point I easily have 10-12 books in the immediate TBR bracket.
What else looks interesting? Besides the big dogs of Malazan ect. I do have to put the initial sword of truth novel in here. It can stand on its own well enough.
I have a fondness for sword and sorcery. Actually I would me remiss if I didn't also add this:
Half my dad's old army footlocker had most of the Appendix N stuff. SO why not?
And yes, I do follow and find writers to promote. I am biased. Full stop. Esp. when it comes to Superhero books. That genre is tiny enough as it is. Back to the book mines for me. And endless quest of fun.
