If you are a new or old-fictional reader, you may be wondering
what the top fantasy books are. This is a fair question. If you are a beginner
in the genre then it is popular what starts. Or perhaps you are curious to see
how mainstream your priorities are.
But in trying to answer this question, you will immediately run
into problems. How do we determine what is a top fantasy book? Sale? Let’s be
honest Some bestselling books may not be good. We can use ratings but as Reoter
Tasha discovered when he looked at the highest-rated books on Goodreads,
reader-generated rankings and lists lead to other problems. The actual number
of ratings can be very low. A book with a higher rating may raise a lower
rating more because of a greater reader rating. Many excellent series populate
the fantasy genre, and the longer the series, the more readers are likely to
find the first book. There is also no denying that some writers dominate the
genre. And if those authors are to be prolific, their books are being given
high status due to their extreme fan following.
Best Fantasy Books for everyone
1. A Game of
Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire, Book 1)
winter is coming. The stern motto is House Stark, which pledges
allegiance to King Baratheon who is far-fetched in King’s Landing to King
Robert Baratheon. Robert’s name is Eddard Stark of the Winterfell Rules. There
his family lives in peace and comfort: his arrogant wife, Kellyanne; His sons
Rob, Brandon and Ricken; His daughters Sansa and Arya; And his bastard son, Jon
Snow. To the north, behind the huge wall, savory wailing and lies – unnatural
things re-represent the myth during the summer for centuries but prove to be
all real and all fatal in the turning of the season.
Yet an even greater threat to the South is under threat, where
John Aryan, The Hand of the King, died under mysterious circumstances. Now
Robert is riding Winterfell, bringing his queen, the lovely but cold Creedie,
his son, the cruel, vicious prince Joffrey, and the queen’s brothers Jaime and
the powerful and wealthy House Lannister’s fabrication, the first, without
equal A swordsman. The other is a dwarf with a stupendous mind. All going to
Winterfell and a spectacular encounter that will change the course of the
states.
Meanwhile, across the Nairo Sea, Prince Viser, the heir to the
fallen House Targaryen, who once ruled all of Westeros, planned to reclaim the
throne with the army of the Berberian Dothraki – the only coin of whose loyalty
he was Will Buy In: Beautiful yet innocent sister, Daenerys.
2.The Name of the Wind Mass
Market Paperback
Although
good writing certainly allows the fantasy genre, it is not necessarily a
necessity. Above all, we want a good story and as long as the prose is
readable, fine. The first novel by Rothfuss showed us that an epic fantasy
novel can not only do good writing, it can showcase beautiful prose. But the
most interesting thing about The Name of the Wind is its structure. When we are
a broken man after a fight, we meet Quoth for the first time. The mystery of
how he got to that last point from his debut as an audacious prodigy is part of
the series’ charm.
Lighted is a world of stones and storms. Incredible electric
brooms in rocky terrain so often that they have given shape to ecology and
civilization. The animals hide in the shells, the trees pull in the branches,
and the grass retreats into the earthen mound. Cities are built where the
topography provides shelter.
It has been around for
centuries since the fall of the Ten Ascended Orders known as the Knights, but
their shardsblade and sharplat remain: mysterious swords and armor suits that
turn ordinary men into near-invincible warriors. The men trade states for Shardbeld.
Wars were fought for them and won by them.
Such a war is called a shattered ground on a ruined landscape.
There, Kaladin, who traded his medical apprenticeship for a spear to protect
his younger brother, was reduced to slavery. In a battle that makes no sense,
where ten armies fight separately against the same enemy, she struggles to save
her men and to pat the leaders who consider her expendable.
Brightlord Dalinar Kholin
commanded one of those other armies. Like his brother, the late king, he was
fascinated by an ancient text called The Way of Kings. Troubled by the immense
power of the knights and knights of ancient times, they have begun to doubt
their own holiness.
Best Fantasy Books Review:
Originally published in 1968, Ursula K. Le Guinness a Wizard of
Earthsia now holds the first six beloved Earthly titles. Ged was the greatest
magician in Earthsia, but in his youth he was a careless sparrow. In his hunger
for power and knowledge, he manipulated long-held secrets and cast a terrible
shadow over the world. This is the story of his trial, how he mastered powerful
words of power, took the name of an ancient dragon, and crossed the threshold
of death to restore balance.
Time
to confess: I first discovered Legwyn through my science fiction. Until I was in
adulthood, I didn’t even think that she had written fiction either.
Unfortunately, the Earthsea series is probably best known for the whitewash
adaptation that aired on the SyFy channel. A true tragedy because anyone who
has read his books knows that Leggin was adept at depicting world-building and
culture.
5.Assassin’s Apprentice (The Farseer Trilogy,
Book 1)

blood – and a child’s deep knowledge with stable wounds and was rejected by his
family.
As barbaric raiders ransacked
the shores, Fitz is rising to manhood. Soon he will face his first dangerous,
soul-shattering mission. And although some consider him a threat to the throne,

Praise for The Lies of Locke Lamora
“Fresh, original, and engrossing . . . gorgeously realized.”—George R. R.
Martin
“Right now, in the full flush of a second reading, I think The Lies of Locke
Lamora is probably in my top ten favorite books ever. Maybe my top five. If
you haven’t read it, you should. If you have read it, you should probably read
it again.”—Patrick Rothfuss, New York Times bestselling author of The
Name of the Wind
“A unique fantasy milieu peopled by absorbing, colorful characters . . .
Locke’s wit and audacity endear him to victims and bystanders alike.”—The
Seattle Times

of comparisons to Silverberg and Jordan, not to mention David Liss and even
Dickens.”—Booklist (starred review)
“High-octane fantasy . . . a great swashbuckling yarn of a novel.”—Richard
Morgan
