S M Stirling recommends
The Annunciate (1999) Severna Park "A spellbinding brew of love, fear, nanotechnology, virtual reality, sex, drugs and a profound meditation on the nature and possibilities of human interaction." | Carthage Ascendant (2000) (Book of Ash, book 2) Mary Gentle "One of the best fantasies I've read in 15 years, bar none." | Night of the Long Knives (2002) (Zancharthus, book 3) Mark E Rogers "The Zancharthus books are a weird, wild, high-energy high-fantasy ride, literally to hell and gone. I enjoyed them thoroughly, even as my jaw dropped. In a field full of timid conformism Mark Rogers isn't afraid." | |
Wolf's Head, Wolf's Heart (2002) (Through Wolf's Eyes, book 2) Jane Lindskold "Through Wolf's Eyes combines the mythic resonances of a feral child raised by wolves with a fascinating fantasy of a freshness and originality that makes all the legion of mock-medieval clones look pale and faded. Her characters live-they're real, but they are different. And the world they live in lingers in the mind; heroic, squalid, and exotic everyday I was convinced that it went on by itself when I turned the last page. Bravo!" | The Center Cannot Hold (2002) (American Empire, book 2) Harry Turtledove "Exciting action, well-drawn characters who draw you into their lives and joys and sorrows, a tightly logical and engrossing plot, and an encyclopedic knowledge of history that enriches the narrative without slowing it—what’s not to like? Buy the book!" | The Shadow of the Storm (2003) (Fallen Cloud, book 3) Kurt R A Giambastiani "A fresh and interesting treatment of Native American Legend." | |
Goddess of the Ice Realm (2003) (Lord of the Isles, book 5) David Drake "Goddess of the Ice Realm is a solid addition to an outstanding fantasy series, showing once again that Drake is among the most versatile of authors in the SF/Fantasy genres." | Mutineer (2004) (Kris Longknife) Mike Shepherd "Solid writing, exciting action and likeable characters." | A Shadow in Summer (2006) (Long Price Quartet, book 1) Daniel Abraham "In a world of bloated fantasy clones, Abraham’s voice is fresh and startlingly new; not only is his worldbuilding original, but the characters who inhabit the universe he's created are both strange and fully human." | |
Final Impact (2007) (Axis of Time, book 3) John Birmingham "The action is nonstop, the characters very real - and very different from each other - and, to coin a phrase, it makes you think." |
