The latest Fantasy Book Reviews
It has been a busy week on Fantasy Book Review with new reviews being added daily.
The nominations for the World Fantasy Award were announced in August and we are reading and reviewing the five books that have been shortlisted for the prestigious award. Margo Lanagan’s stunning Tender Morsels has been reviewed while Jim Eaton has also provided an excellent review on Jeffrey Ford’s The Shadow Year (before moving onto The House of the Stag By Kage Baker and Pandemonium by Daryl Gregory). The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman was reviewed by Indra quite some time ago so that will soon be able to say which we believe to be the best of a damn good bunch.
Preita Salyer has been a fantastic addition to the team and has recently reviewed the entire Mercy Thompson series by Patricia Briggs as well as Rick Riordan’s children’s fantasy The Lightning Thief.

Angela Black has reviewed Palimpsest by Catherynne M Valente and Sandy Lender has reviewed the final book in the Bridei Chronicles The Well of Shades. Sandra Scholes has read and reviewed Blackwyrm Book’s Albrim’s Curse, by Trevis Powell and there is also a good debut by an English author, Harriet Goodwin, entitled The Boy Who Fell Down Exit 43.
And on top of all this we interviewed Steven Erikson, the author of the magnificent Malazan Book of the Fallen series. His answers are brilliant, please take the time to have a read.
We are also running a poll on what is the best fantasy film of all time. The poll itself is on all pages so please tell us what you think if you get the chance. Also, feel free to comment below if you think we are missing a classic…
It will be a busy month coming up, hopefully we can get as many books reviewed as we have already this year…
