@maxgladstone @sapphomancer #1 House of Open Wounds @aptshadow .For 2024, there was unanimous consent. House of Open Wounds is simply wonderful. Taking everything that was good about book 1 and improving on it, this book was the uncontested best book we read in 2024.

@maxgladstone #2 Metal From Heaven @sapphomancer .August Clarke’s adult fantasy debut hit me where it counted this year. It’s a bombastic, sexy, troubled, and fight-ready novel about revolution.

#3 Wicked Problems @maxgladstone .Every beloved character from all the Craft novels is crammed into one novel. We get character drama, heartfelt reunions, powerful team-ups, character growth & some of the best group chemistry I have read in a book.

#4 The West Passage @vandroidhelsing .This is the most original piece of #fantasy I have read in 2024. It is a standalone surreal fable told in an almost hallucinogenic style, filled with giant ladies who bend reality and an infinite palace in disrepair.

#5 Those Beyond The Wall @micaiah_johnson.Johnson makes Ashtown come alive with passion and creates a fantastic story about how it maintains its sovereignty as the richer Wiley city looks down upon it. It’s a triumphant return, and you should pick it up.

@linrosily @HowardAndrewJon @decastell #6 The Tainted Cup .The Tainted Cup is a story overflowing with dark, damp, leafy mysteries. These shadowy secrets contrast perfectly with the vibrant, warm cast, all of which have rich personalities that shine in this terrifying and stressful world.

@linrosily @HowardAndrewJon #7 Crucible of Chaos & Play of Shadows @decastell .Both were extremely entertaining stories that had great self-contained themes but also nailed the expansion of the scope of the series at large. Mark my works, big things are coming from de Castell!

@linrosily #8 Shadow of the Smoking Mountain @HowardAndrewJon .Please pick up this story; it is not being talked about nearly enough to do justice. Jones has modernized the best parts of old sword and sorcery classics with a powerful narrative structure and punch.

#9 Daughter of Calamity @linrosily .Daughter of Calamity is a glamorous and deadly fever dream whose haze I can’t quite shake, and it left me with one of the best book hangovers of 2024.

#10 The Daughters of War .This is a solid prequel, which is a category of books I normally find unnecessary, and I really enjoyed my time with it. Buehlman is a thoughtful and provocative author and is making impressive waves in the grimdark space.

@premeesaurus @JamesSACorey #11 Alien Clay @aptshadow .Alien Clay is the #scifi book I’ve been waiting for, and of course, it’s delivered by none other than Tchaikovsky. He’s never been afraid to mix politics, revolution & ecology before, but it feels so succinct & energetic here.

@premeesaurus #12 The Mercy of Gods @JamesSACorey .They’re back! James S.A. Corey, that delectable writing duo, have come back together for a new space opera after finishing their quintessential Expanse series.

#13 Siege of Burning Grass.@premeesaurus's standalone #fantasy treatise on the nature of pacifism in a time of war was an utter delight.

#14 Somewhere Beyond The Sea .TJ Klune’s Somewhere Beyond The Sea delivers a heartfelt sequel to his breakout hit. In the follow-up, we spend more time with the wacky and whimsical found family of Arthur Parnassus:

#15 The Last Shield @CamJohnston . It is a clever combination of spectacle and fun draped over a lovable protagonist. It is, simply put, a good time, and if you are looking for a short distraction, look no further.
