Fantasy Blogosphere: December 13, 2009

Posted on December 13, 2009 by Jeff Pelletier

Everyone is gearing up for the holidays, and this means two things: people are talking about the best books from 2009 (gift ideas!), and people are talking about the most anticipated books form 2010.

We start off with a healthy assortment of reviews, get into a pair of fantastic interviews (check out Rothfuss & Abercrombie – they’re downright hilarious), and top it off with some industry news, recaps of 2009 and outlooks for 2010. I should note that Pat over at Pat’s Fantasy Hotlist seems to be doing everything right this holiday season, hence the need to link to him four times. Great stuff.

We’ve got a great mix of reviews this week, from George R.R. Martin’s work on Suicide Kings, to books by David Anthony Durham, Lev Grossman, and another review of The Gathering Storm by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson. Top it all off with the season finale of The Guild. Tis’ the season for MMORPG sitcom finales.

Check out a Thanksgiving-sized helping of fantasy book reviews this week, including a pair on The Magicians by Lev Grossman, Pat’s review of The Dragon Keeper by Robin Hobb, and reviews of books by David Anthony Durham, Terry Brooks, and more.

We’ve also got news on The Dark Tower film project, Choose Your Own Adventure books make it to Kindle publication, and I give my take on the worst ending in fantasy books over at Grasping for the Wind.

Fantasy Blogosphere: October 4, 2009

Plenty of quality reviews this week, including reviews of both books in Karen Miller’s Kingmaker, Kingbreaker series.  I like to follow up my own reviews with reviews by others if possible, in order to give everyone a fair sampling of opinion.  In addition to a few great reviews, of course we’ve got episode 5 of The Guild, which has to be my favorite so far in season 3.  Pong? Frickin’ hilarious.

The fantasy blogosphere is buzzing this week, with quality review after review, including books by Ken Scholes, Brandon Sanderson, Lev Grossman and more.  This should give you plenty to do while you’re parked in front of the TV watching race for October baseball or week three NFL action.

And last but not least, I think its safe to call me a “Guildy” at this point.
