Fantasy fiction preferences
Posted: 20 Jan 2006 02:13 PM
Presumably, many of the Vives folks read fantasy fiction.

How 'bout putting up some of your favorite recently-read books and/or authors?

If you're looking for an insatiably clever integration of fantasy and sci-fi, read _The Book of the New Sun_ by Gene Wolfe. It's excellent (actually four books - _The Shadow of the Torturer_, _The Claw of the Conciliator_, _The Sword of the Lictor_, and _The Citadel of the Autarch_). Great surprises and climactic plot twists.

I'm currently reading the two-book series _The Wizard Knight_ by the same author. Also very clever.

Thanks for breaking my heart. *sniff*
