You may add a few lines telling us what made those books special for you, but you don’t have to. Also while it’s always nice to see Mark Lawrence titles among your favourites, including any or not won’t affect your chances of winning.

in no particular order as I genuinely can’t separate them in terms of quality
One of our Thursdays is missing – Jasper Fforde
The Buried Giant – yes Mr Ishiguro, despite what you say, a novel with dragons, mystical knights, strange boatmen, magical quests and mists of forgetfulness is definitely a fantasy novel.
This Census Taker – China Mieville – short but very sweet.
The Minotaur takes his own Sweet Time – Steven Sherrill – a welcome return for M to the the pages of literature.
Children of the Sky – Guy Kay – simply beautiful writing and great book.

1. Broken Empire (this is just sucking up, these books where amazing. I’ve never come across a character like Jorg before and not sure I will again!!)
2. Heir of Novron by Michael J. Sullivan (I was just going to put the entire Ryria series but put my favorite of them all. Great story telling and characters you love come to the end)
3. Morning Star by Pierce Brown (Another series finisher but again another great book. Characters and story is so compelling, loved every second of it)
4. Futuristic Violence and Fancy Suits by David Wong (another classic from Mr. Wong aka Jason Pargin. Well written story with plenty of humor)
5. Ex Heroes by Peter Clines (Changing it up and putting book#1 of the series. This was a unique take on the zombie apocalypses and really enjoyed it)
