Amazon’s Top 5 Fantasy Books, July 10, 2011

Posted on July 10, 2011 by Jeff Pelletier

Is this real, or am I just dreaming? It still seems a bit unreal, but A Dance with Dragons is set to drop in t-minus two days, and the anticipation has propelled the Kindle version to second place, right under its twin brother, Mr. Hardcover. Martin continues to dominate the top 5, leading me to believe this year might be the fall of urban fantasy. Minimally, 2011 has already seen urban fantasy yield the first 6 months to fantasy; we’ll see if Martin continues his dominance for the second half of the year.

  1. A Dance with Dragons (Hardcover) by George R.R. Martin
  2. A Dance with Dragons (Kindle) by George R.R. Martin
  3. A Game of Thrones (Kindle) by George R.R. Martin
