  • Conversion Trilogy

    It's next to impossible to write an original vampire story. Blame RPatz or Spike, but the best and worst has all been done. Enter S.C. Stephens. The Conversion trilogy is...

  • Alvin Maker

    I'd put this in the "Overrated Books With Undeserved Hype" category. I can't argue with Card's genius as a writer and the fact that he's usually a great writer, usually....

  • Misfits

    Fantasy and comedy aren't two genres you'd think to put together. Amidst the seriousness of worldbuilding and magical ability, there's little room for jokes, but Misfits carves out space for...

  • What Lies Beyond the Veil (Of Flesh & Bone Series)

    Once, we’d worshipped them as Gods.For nearly 400 years, the Veil has protected us from the Fae of Alfheimr. In their absence, our lives have shifted from decadence and sin...

  • Sweet Blood

    For a cool YA vampire adventure, It'd be hard to recommend anything better than Sweet Blood. This book hands down does the best misunderstood-goth-coming-of-age story. The story premise is really...

  • Shadow Saga

    There's a tendency in fantasy to build extremely complex, D&D-like worlds, and in many cases, that's just what readers are after. However, there's also something to be said for books...

  • The Ill-made Mute

    Gets the "Overrated Books With Undeserved Hype" as the book did get more praise than it rightly deserved. I'd also tack on the "Terribly Written Books" category too. However, in...

    Probably a book that most of you haven't read but it's basically a bunch of drivel about a conniving cast of college kids who get sucked into a D&D board...

  • The Waking Engine

    One of those books that takes you with the sheer imagination of it all. If you want something different that blends together a number of genres (though if I had...

  • The Black Jewels

    Three words to describe the Black Jewels Trilogy: Over the top. Terrible things happen in this book, but they're written with so much drama that you can't take them too...

  • Baldur's Gate 2 (2000)

    This faultless improvement on the original title still has a scope beyond many of today's biggest RPGs. Created at BioWare's heights, this game throws you into a D&D inspired world...

  • Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines

    This is a bit of strange one to make this list, and not because of the convoluted name. The truth is that if you'd asked anyone about this game on...

  • Alan Wake (2010)

    With inspiration from greats like Stephen King, Neil Gaiman and Alfred Hitchcock, you would expect Alan Wake to have a strong story, and you'd be entirely correct. This psychological thriller...

  • Paradox Bound: A Novel

    Nothing ever changes in Sanders. The town’s still got a video store, for god’s sake.   So why doesn’t Eli Teague want to leave?   Not that he’d ever admit...

  • Iron And Magic:

    The Iron Covenant Book 1No day is ordinary in a world where Technology and Magic compete for supremacy…But no matter which force is winning, in the apocalypse, a sword will...

  • The Color Of Magic
