These are the fantasy books that interest me this year:
- The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden
- The new Black Jewels trilogy by Anne Bishop
- The Dreaming Tree by C. J. Cherryh
- The Doom of Odin by Scott Oden
My choice of Oriental fantasy this year is between Tea with the Black Dragon by R. A MacAvoy and Daughter of the Moon Goddess by Sue Lynn Tan. From the blurb, I think I prefer Daughter of the Moon Goddess.
For my Broadening Horizon Reads, I’ve cycled back to the romance genre this year and I intend to cheat a little by picking Outlander. The other one will be One Hundred years of Solitude, my first foray into magic realism.
For Craft and Curiousity, I have my eyes sets on The Lovely Bones and The Shipping News. The Shipping News will be my third attempt to find a book written in omniscient and since the Shipping News is referred to in UBC Novel writing courses I did, I think I will be third time lucky.
