The "part two" I mentioned possibly doing at the end has actually already been done--and confusingly, I posted it before this one. If you're interested in more staples to non-staples recs, though, you can find that here: th-cam.com/video/JKCDiLxe3rE/w-d-xo.html

Gideon the Ninth/The Locked Tomb series is one of the best things I've read in a long time! So glad you like it 🔥☠
I'm always happy when people mention The Old Kingdom books! I feel like the younger generations of fantasy fans don't know about it and they're truly fantastic.
I never read fantasy growing up and for most of my adult life. Game of Thrones (never watched the show) kicked the door wide open for me. It really got me interested in the fantasy genre.
omg I love this! Please turn this into a regular series.
If you like Robin Hobb, read Lois McMaster Bujold!
Robin McKinley might be a fine classic fantasy author to start with. She has a young person's feel in many of her novels but not necessarily what we would call YA today if that makes sense. Her writing style is maybe more adult but beautiful. Also, try Patricia A. McKillip. She's very mythic and fairy-tale like and very lyrical in the way she writes.
I love Patricia McKillip's writing. I discovered both of these authors at the same time as they were next to each other in the fantasy area at my library. I was hooked. I'd go back to the library and pick up more of their books to read through them.
For those liking fantasy with a (pre)medieval feel to it: Deverry series by Katharine Kerr.
I also recommend the Krondor series by Raymond E Feist and the Shannara series by Terry Brooks.
def a part two :) Does anyone read the older fantasy anymore like David Eddings or L E Modesitt Jr, Raymond E Feist and Stephen Donaldson?
Okay, this video flew unter my radar - but this is such an interesting way of recommending books! It also gives a great overview of what to expect - managing my next read has become a lot easier now
I would recommend Sorcery of Thorns by Margaret Rogerson to Sabriel fans. Not based on necromancers but just *vibes* and also demon cats. 😂
yes but also - Vespertine by Margaret Rogerson, does have tiered death magic & a young female protagonist somewhat thrown into a situation outside her depth (so like Sabriel specifically)
Love this channel. Looking forward to these recs!
Justice of Kings is amazing! The series, Empire of the Wolf, is excellent and really nails the ending especially!
Great video! I'm excited to hop into so many of these series 🙌🏾
I wants to say thank you, for these kinds of videos, I consider myself a fantasy junkie…yet I find most of your recommendations videos refreshing and somehow tailored to my tastes 😊
I have one of these, sort of... There's a series by JV Jones that I don't hear anyone talking about called Sword of Shadows. It has four books as of now.
And it reminds a lot of A Song of Ice and Fire, but specifically to the North parts of Martin books (Winterfell, the Wall, the lands beyond the Wall). There are clans, blood and dark magic, lots of alliances, treason and backstabbing... it's fairly grim.
For those that want Wheel of Time's epic story, but less filler, try Faithful and the Fallen by John Gwynne and the Licanius Trilogy by James Islington. Faithful has a large cast and epic battles, but it also has great characters that you actually like a couple of well done romances (unlike Wheel of Time). Or if you love Lord of the Rings, try Memory Sorrow and Thorn by Tad Williams, the inspiration for Song of Ice and Fire.
This is such a good idea for a video, I hope you do more just like this
Yay, beautiful show! We're eagerly awaiting the show about Robin Hobb. Thank you.
Sabriel, Lireal, and Abhorsen are some of my favorite books. Discovered them as a kid and have reread multiple times as an adult. Really need to try Gideon the ninth
Love these videos always passionate and amazing about books 💛💙📚📚🩵🩵📚💛💛📚📙🩷📖📖💗🌺💜📌🧡🧡🧡❤️❤️🌺💗🌺💜❤️💜🌷🧡🌷🫶🏻🖤📙🩷💖💛🌈💙🩵📚💛📖💖📙📙🩷📖📖🌈
To me, Bone Smith was like: What if Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts was a book?
This was such a great concept, thanks for the recs. I can't wait for the Robin Hobb video!
When you said death magic, my first thought was Gideon
I love the Green Rider. 👍🏻
Joe Abercrombie is too much into torture for me. Read his first trilogy.
Sabriel and the Old Kingdom series is a phenomenal story and I highly recommend listening to it on audio, Tim Curry‘s narration is magnificent!
Great video,your channel is so good!! I own engines of empire and engines of chaos ,going to start reading them soon.
G the Ninth sounds up my alley
SABRIEL!!!!!!!!!
I totally enjoyed Bone smith…… I can’t wait for the next installment!! 5🌟
Love these videos. Can't wait for the "Robin Hobb recs" video
I just bout a justice of king and the sequel on sale , the covers just looked amazing :) i hooe i love it
Great Video!
I have finally started Engines of Empire and i am really enjoying it so far. I love all of the Justice series so i feel these are two great recommendations from someone who Enjoys Abercrombie as well. I hope to start the Winnowing Flame trilogy in the next month or so while i'm staying with family for a while! I loved Bone ships so i will have to give Age of Assassins a try as well. Thanks for the tips.
If you're looking for more fantasy in a more traditional style from a female perspective by a different australian author try The Witches of Eileanan by Kate Forsyth, I think it was called Dragonclaw in the US back in the day.
It’s funny; the only book on this list I’ve even picked up is Sabriel. Even that one I couldn’t finish, tho I can’t recall why. I guess I like “light” fantasy as opposed to “dark”.
Read Justice of Kings on your recommendation and loved it. One I would add as a staple is Sword of Truth since it ticks all the stereo types of a fantasy series
This comment is less for Elliott, as I've mentioned this author before, but more for viewers. My lesser known rec for Abercrombie (especially for younger readers, lesser known but a legend (pun intended) within fantasy) is David Gemmell. He was grimdark (a genre name a can't stand) before grimdark, when it was called Heroic Fantasy. Short books. Great characters. Not much descriptive text about the trees etc, just sharp, concise, too the point action and character oriented stories. Recommend just starting in publication order of his Drenai Saga books, or his Jon Shannow trilogy, which is where I started.
Drop the teeth whitening routine omg lol I’m jelly
Oh man I didn't expect to see Sabriel brought up but I am very glad. Old favorite of mine, gotta check out bone smith and Gideon I guess
Did you ever finish Defiant? Curious what you thought of that one. I remember enjoying it- but for the life of me, I can’t remember what happened already. 😬
I actually, finally, started watching Castelvania before my recent reread of Gideon and I honestly was sitting there comparing Gideon to Trevor lol
So... Part 3?
said this in a reply but wanted to add specifically as a rec for Sabriel - Vespertine by Margaret Rogerson. A girl brought into a difficult role and in over her head in a sudden high stakes scenario, tiers of necromancy, accessible to a younger audience - it has it all
Could you do a death magic book recommendation video?
any recs if you did like assasins apprentice but prefer something less chunky and slow?
I love Green Rider but I hate that this author is taking FOREVER to finish the series. There’s a cliff-hanger still unresolved that’s been ongoing for like 5 books. It drives me crazy!
I think I’ve been reading the series for almost 20 years now, I don’t even know how many more books we need
What is it with authors and waiting years to publish the final book? Like, I have a fave romantasy that is incomplete. It's been almost 4 years since the penultimate came out, and the last one was supposed to be published in late 2021. The author pushed it back because of a personal matter, and it's been almost 2 years since she last updated the fans on its progress.
And that is something more it has in common with The Wheel of Time
Kristen Britain's books (main 7) average 3-5 years between publication which is a long time but personally, she hasn't let me down yet! Her last 3 books are all over 700 pages so they've felt worth the wait lol she's announced recently that she's completed her draft of the next book! And she's said there's 1 more book after to tie up the series arc! So we're nearing the end! Good time for new readers to start and not have to endure the waiting like many of us have!
Finally! That is good news. I really like her writing and characters but it is so ridiculous leaving cliffhangers unnecessarily for years and years.
I will probably never read Game of Thrones for this reason. I need to have closed endings or at least some decent open endings in a book series instead of teasing cliffhangers.
Hello, I've been reading the green Rider series for a long time now. Unfortunately I am almost done reading the last book lady winter light I'm enjoying the book and will be very sad when it ends. I was wondering if you have read lady Winter Light and how you liked it?
I have been following your reviews for a while now and find them enjoyable. I mostly like Epic Fantasy. Question for you, do you find that new Epic Fantasy is becoming more rare? I think there's a case to be made with the popularity of shorter ebooks. What do you think? Take care and keep up the great work.
Anyone interested in an Urban Fantasy (vampires and werewolves) with some humor and irony, I highly recommend Molly Harper’s Nice Girls Don’t Have Fangs.
I attribute Sabriel to my becoming a fantasy reader, the series is SO good. The Old Kingdom as well as His Dark Materials are so important to me
bone smith for 99p that's not a bad bargain .....right?
goth arc
I friggin' love Sabriel
Well perhaps instead of "staples" it should be "starter pack". :)
No there isn't an adaptation of Wheel of Time.
She meant in television
@@jillsimpson8872 You could probably guess my meaning if you knew that I've seen it.
@@JoelAdamson sorry I haven’t seen it but sounds like I don’t need to. My bad did not realize this was sarcasm. 🤷♀️
@@jillsimpson8872 Yeah, it's awful. Forgettable. Honestly the only time I remember it happened is when I see promos for it on Prime Video.
I finally read Bonesmith, and you were right! This book deserves all the hype you've given it and then some. One of my new favorite books! I can't wait for the next one to come out. Thank you so much for the recommendation 🥹🩶💚
I love justice of Kings and the grace of king’s and The Witcher all good books and unique characters 📙🌈🌈📖📖📚📙💖💜🩷🌺💙🩷🖤🖤🩷💛🩵💗🫶🏻🧡🪻💛💙🩵🫶🏻🖤🐰🌹📖📖📖🌹🌹💙💙💛💛🪻💙🌺🐰💜🌷📙📙🌈📖📖🌈📌💖💖🩵🫶🏻🖤🪻🩷🩷🌈💙📙
