The 2023 FANTASY TIER LIST!

which absolutely was a worthwhile reread and something I enjoyed I'll put it in the a tier deserves to be a classic something that's been of course as influential as his reputation States it as definitely a mustre for everybody

I would recommend a book people should look at if they're looking for a very different approach to pros and storytelling in terms of structure because it's not like everything else lewinn ever wrote it's pretty distinct in how she moves The Reader through the story and tells the story

I originally gave the first volume of Berserk a negative review and now I think karum mura has put out the greatest fictional meditation on trauma ever

black sun does so much great work with culture and character and just moving The Reader through the book almost just violently with how well the pacing is put together

I appreciate blame so much for being so different and so weird and just Vib into it its own tune but it's a story that at the end of it I am just left kind of going but I don't what I saw

had a lot of personality and I think characterization is something that people even could learn from with Cam at this point

the cyber Punk novel that came out this year is good but not special not something I would fervently recommend to anybody

I'm still having a really good time with my first ever manga Thriller now I read Death Note but my first ever manga Thriller I'm liking

this is going in D without question this is maybe the worst thing I read this year even partially read this year Terry good kind I'm disgusted and repulsed and I can't look away

I think I'll put equal rights over it just because the character from Terry pratchet kind of Untouchable in the grand scope of fantasy he's able to put in depth and personality in just a few sentences probably better than any other author I've ever come across

then we have going postal which I maintain is an underrated and overlooked entry point for disc world

I am not a serial killer I'm going to say it's not like as technically stupendous as some of the S tiers I don't think I enjoyed it as much as orconomics or I don't like have the same reverence for it that I do like 1984

I found this one especially in the first Arc to be just too basic it went through so many beats that just felt like it was checking boxes and had more potential than what it delivered on and tried to do too much in too few chapters

I think my biggest criticism is some of Pierce Brown's approaches to battles and conflict can get a little bit just a little bit redundant at times but it's not egregious and it's more than made up for with just how truly epic in all senses of the word this story has become

it was really cute it definitely knows what it's trying to be I just think needs to be expanded out a bit more to reach its full potential

I think this is a not only just addictive blend of like Scott Pilgrim vers the world and the Dresden Files but also maybe like a good entry point depending if you're that kind of person for manga as a whole

this has continued to be really good overall though I will say it's kind of wearing thin in the last two volumes in a few of the areas where the series was stronger

if you're a night angel fan you're going to like this because it's Brent week's coming in and evolving what he brings to the table really well while also staying very true to what this series was

incredibly obnoxious characters a complete failure at actually realizing tension or horror I don't think this book achieved anything it set out to achieve

from what I read solid B tier it was fun and I definitely get the appeal of the main character as this like parody of the Superman type

this is a satire on capitalism and the fantasy genre as a whole and it goes in directions that I did not expect while also bringing some of the best action I have read this year in terms of being just solid action and really fun to the table

the body keeps the score is the best book from a academic standpoint I have ever read on the current Mental Health crisis in the United States and our misunderstandings of what trauma generational trauma and the statistics around trauma are

I think the main character was kind of forgettable definitely the most forgettable character Sanderson brought to the table this year and the conflict especially at the end actually kind of sank down into the being mishandled territory

I never thought I would put a Cormac with karthy book that low but it was just what insanely unsuccessful I did not connect with this book I think on any level it attempted

I really like sunlet man Sanderson doing his Mad Max his Indiana Jones and it working to surprisingly great effect

I said it might be my favorite read of the year and I think it actually is this might bump out this is how you lose the time War

this is how you lose the time war was the most inventive the most emotional and the most unexpected sci-fi book I have read in recent memory just full stop this was beautiful it's a masterpiece in my opinion

absolute Banger from Sanderson started off the secret projects by showing everybody these are not throwaway novels these aren't trunk novels that he's hauling out for just like an extra quick Buck

another unfortunate bit of a disappointment here I wanted this to be a bit more imaginative a bit bigger

I actually went through and finished a lot more of Vagabond and I totally understand the appeal this one hits and is one I'm going to be wanting to do a lot deeper more thorough videos on in the future

there was a really cool magic system and some decent characters and I like how she played with time in it a little bit but this was just forgettable

another in from Sanderson one I thought I liked just as much as Tres is the emerald SE But as time has moved on I think I like Tres smidge more
