Fun Fiction Reads
I love a good work of fiction. These are just some of my favorites.
My all-time favorite urban fantasy series. Take a Phillip Marlowe or Sam Spade type private detective and make him a wizard dealing with supernatural crime. Dark Wizards, Faeries, Werewolves, Vampires (of multiple types), Knights, and Demons. Just fun, fast-paced, and great storytelling.
Dresden Files
Brandon Sanderson is a master storyteller and world builder. This is epic fantasy by a master of his craft.
THE STORMLIGHT ARCHIVE® SERIES
Joe Abercrombie's ability to write characters so real you can practically smell their breath is unmatched. This series is phenomenal start to finish.

The Iron Druid Chronicles Series by Kevin Hearne
Islington has been lauded for his past works that didn't really match the hype. The Will of the Many is different. This is a really cool book and I can't wait for the 2nd part of the series to release.
The Will of the Many (Hierarchy) eBook
This book series is amazing. It's one of my absolute favorites. Pierce Brown doesn't allow any character to be safe. It's brutal but the writing and story are just fantastic.

This book is a bit of a departure from Abercrombie's other Grim Dark works. However, I loved it. It's a genuinely and gleefully fun read.
The Devils (Devils, 1) by Joe Abercrombie
“It is important when killing a nun to ensure that you bring an army of sufficient size.” THAT is the very first line of this book. This series is one I come back to time and again to explore the character relationships and beautiful storytelling.
