I've also enjoyed Robert Jordan, Brandon Sanderson and Garth Nix, alongside a bunch of other fantasy writers whose names/books I can't remember. (Not that my judgment in this area is particularly reliable, given how indiscriminate I am with fantasy books :3)

- Latest Review: "Broken (I Live To Let You Shine)" by Kimmy Downing
I never got to read Inkheart. The movie came out before I heard of the book and it REALLY turned me off the series, despite how hot I think BF is. How much better is the book than the movie?Lydia wrote:Those are all very good fantasy authors. My favorites are a bit too much on the kiddie side, I admit.
Let's see, Tolkien for sure. Then there are two others who follow his patterns - Christopher Paolini (Eragon) and Patricia McKillip (Riddlemaster Trilogy). Raymond E. Feist is also another favorite of mine, though his books are a bit too gory and violent sometimes. Of course, there are also Lewis with his Narnia books, Cornelia Funke (Inkeart), Rick Riordan (Percy Jackson), Philip Pullman (His Dark Materials) and Brandon Mull (Fablehaven). Oh, and Derek Landy - his Skulduggery Pleasant books are simply exquisite!
Languages never spoken.
Colors that should not be.
Lives never opened.
Eyes that never see.
And then the page is turned, a universe created.
We are gods.
