Top 10 Books of the 2020s

Arthur is the most incredible kind of wrap-up to an Arththeran book or one of the one of the best historical fiction books I've read. The way that Charles Christian writes with his kind of his traditional pros but mixed in with this dark ages flare and this flavor.

We got compelling main characters, a bit like I said with Buffalo Hunter. There's two main characters who have very different ideologies and upbringings, but they're forced into close proximity and they question each other and they change each other and they have a huge influence on the lives of one another. And that plays out absolutely exceptionally.

It's beautiful writing. It is character exploration to the depths of what makes us human. And these characters, they feel fully explored.

The Daughter's War is just fantasy. This is what epic fantasy needs to be. This is what modern fantasy needs to look at and think that's how it's done.

The ending of Empire of the Damned is peak fantasy. It's one of my favorite endings to a book ever.

This is one of the greatest just feats of fantasy I've ever come across.

It is one of the probably the funniest book on this list for either of us, but also one of the most tragic. Fatty Lennon just explores brilliantly the humanity rooted within us all.

Dan Jones is the perfect writer to write Henry V because he writes non-fiction with such kind of gravitas with such kind of a modern lens looking at these intriguing characters and intriguing times. But what he does here is he writes the story of Henry V told in present tense and it just changes the story completely. Non-fiction done in a new way.

This is book three, the finale of kind of the first era of Goulong. And the end of these characters arcs is exceptional.

This book two of a series feels like an epic finale which really went against my expectations. It is incredibly epic and cataclysmic and unpredictable. And Philip Chase shows his confidence as a writer in a world which is Tolken's kind of nature invaded by GML's characters.

he gets to warlord and this is the book that we were all waiting for. it is Bernard Cornwell again at his very best. It's so unique so individual to him and the way that he crafts Utrid's kind of his swan song is incredible.
