Brian Staveley recommends
thumb
The Runes of Engagement (2024)
Tobias S Buckell and Dave Klecha
"A story stitched from the greatest late-night dorm room debates. Who would win: Black Hawks versus dragons? Marines versus trolls? All the magic of Tolkien arrayed against the 21st-century American war machine?"
thumb
Ash and Bones (2020)
(City of Sacrifice, book 2)
Michael R Fletcher
"The fertile soil of Mesamerican mythology, warped through the lens of Fletcher's hyperkinetic imagination, yeilds hypnotic, terrifying results."
thumb
Tides of the Titans (2019)
(Titan's Forest Trilogy, book 3)
Thoraiya Dyer
"Everything you expect from a great epic-quests, fearless warriors, gods born again-but [a] rich and vivid original setting."
