With all the Sanderson projects you've read, I think its time for a Sanderson tier list

Yo Egghead Island is SLAPPING!! I don’t think anyone was expecting this small arc to be as engaging as it is now. Def top tier arc

The amount of praise The Will of the Many has received this year is crazy. What an incredible start to a new series.

I always feel sad when I realize I'll never be able to read all the great fantasy books, let alone all the great books of any genre. Would love a tier list of your favorite books to know what to prioritize :)

I've been a fan of your channel for a very very long time. Thank you for always making such amazing content. You have helped me appreciate the fantasy genre and it almost feels like you've been on my reading journey with me because of how much our taste in books lines up. I do have ulterior motives with this comment, though... I know you get recommended HunterxHunter all the time and you haven't gotten into it in the past, but I wanted to make another pitch to you. It suffers from some of the downsides of pantsing. Togashi clearly introduced some major story elements later (like the entire magic system) that should have been included in the start. That being said, if you can make it through the first major story arc, it is some of the best fiction ever created, with some of the most incredible characters to ever exist. This is coming from a guy who thinks Joe Abercombie is the GOAT because of how much I love characters. Some of the characters that emerge later in HunterxHunter will absolutely blow your mind. Not to mention, once the magic system gets introduced, I am certain you will be completely blown away at how well done, in depth, and just cool it is. It has a very slow and uninspired start, I get that. I typically do not read things that people say "You just have to get through the bad part!" In this case, it is absolutely worth it. I really think you'll end up being grateful you tried it out. Anyway, thanks again for all the lovely content you make!

@L_For_Literature

The rest of your comment is fine, but a magic (system) doesn’t have to be introduced in the beginning. Builds more intrigue. To me at least. Magic shouldn’t be at the front of the story, even in manga, as characters, plot, etc. are much more important

@Whistrash

7 ай бұрын

@L_For_Literature Yeah I actually liked how Hunter x Hunter had introduced the magic system later on. Gave a perspective of just what normal humans are capable of with some foreshadowing for something greater

Good stuff! Added some books to my TBR list!

I can't wait for you to read more of Kingdom. While manga with lots of fighting are very very common Kingdom really sets itself apart with the large scale battles, strategy, panel art etc. I'm 100% convinced you'll be glad to have read more.

Always looking forward to these lists!

Just ran out to the mall to buy new books for the first time in years thanks to your enthusiasm for those top two!

I’m a simple man, I see a tier list and I click it.

Heya! :) Daniel! If you like the idea and find some time, I would love to see you do a video on 'writing style', if its a discussion or a tier list or just a rant :'D I am sooo interested in what you like to read in a fantasy book and overall perceive as a good fit for a modern book writing about fantasy, is it the 'whaddup dude' or 'sire, thy ass mirrors the sun, splendid' kinda stuff. ('too poetic', 'too modern', 'super old-school', 'sentences are unreadable', thou' thy', etc). Maybe you'd even give us some examples of what you like and not :) Have a wonderful end of the year! Really love your persona and content :)

The Body Keeps the Score ended up being a big advertisement for body mind training. I get lots of qigong students from therapists reading this book.

Yay fantasy tier list! My tbr is so long I’m going to cry…..

Definitely added some of these to my TBR. Have you ever checked out the Fred, The Vampire Accountant books? I've been listening to those and they're fun and imaginative. A boring CPA gets bit by a vampire and stays a boring CPA who is occasionally dragged into adventures by an increasingly zany and ever-expanding friend group of magical beings.

Appreciate your honesty

The good thing about a series starting at C is that the next entries can climb higher and become greater :)

Thank you for putting 3 new books in my 2 read list

I felt the same as you about kingdom at first, but wow when you get into the bigger arcs it becomes special, I’m around chapter 350 and it’s great

Great list! You've gotta give the Dungeon Crawler Carl series a listen. I say listen since the audio book is incredible. Probably one of the best narrations that I have ever experienced.

Tried twice, could not get into This Is How You Lose the Time War. Only tried audiobook but still. Can see it is an original take but that’s it

First time I’m hearing of Orconomics and it sounds right up my alley!!! Added to the ✔️

Nice list. I have a feeling things are going to be changing already with the release of the new Murderbot next week. I can't wait. A couple of manga I think you would like wound be Battle Angel Alita and Claymore, if you haven't yet. I honestly haven't been reading a lot of prose books this year. Manga has taken over for me, especially One Piece right now. I'm currently in Skypiea. I have so much Sanderson to catch up on.

I'd love to see a video on your favorite indie novels.

Preordered a nice Broken Binding edition of The Will of the Many very spur of the moment so pleased to hear some hype about it 😊

Daniel putting This is How You Lose the Time War at the top of S tier is my new fave genre 💙❤️ We as a society need to write letters like Blue and Red

I'm fairly new to the 40k novels (I started playing the game a year ago), so I can't speak to most of them. But I can whole-heartedly reccomend The Infinite and the Divine by Robert Rath, specifically the audiobook narrated by Richard Reed. Two immortal robot skeletons start a feud over an ancient relic, leading to a millenia-long rivalry. No description I give would do it justice, but I implore you to look into it.

It's kind a hard to find in this genre, but it's too advanced for me at this moment 💔

I'd actually really recommend reading the how to train your dragon books, I read them when I was a kid and I remember them being fun reads and getting surprisingly deep by the later books

This tier list is surprisingly helpful

Love the Tier Lists, Recently started the Midnight Front by David Mack. Really enjoying its setting (WW2), great magic system as well in my opnion. Should give it a go!

Love these wrap up tier lists! I also connected to the same 3 secret project books and was disappointed with Untethered Sky by Fonda Lee, which just did not engage my imagination or emotions.

Woo! Love the tier list videos!

Daniel reading more Terry Goodkind, cannot wait for the review.

when I saw Orconomics I thought of Mary Gentle's "Grunts!", another great satire on the standard fantasy tropes, this time with a military angle. I can definitely recommend it, laughed my ass off

i've been following Max Gladstone for a few years now and I think The Craft Sequence is very good.

I'll be on this list one day!

Wow, you are reading Monster ha. I can say that its the only mystery thriller anime that takes place in 80s eastern Europe. Recently watched Pluto, you can give that one a shot, has the same mangaka. Between the two, I'd say I liked Pluto better. Probably the best first episode of anything I've ever watched. What an amazing hook.

Hey Daniel! Can you give the Prince of Nothing, and hopefully as extension, the Aspect-Emperor Quadrilogy by R. Scott. Bakker a try and review? Shaping up to be a new favourite of mine after the post-Malazan depression.

Hot take: How To Train Your Dragon 2 and 3 are both significant steps down from the first movie, and barely pass as average movies. Especially since the finale of the third movie undermines the themes of the first movie entirely.

YES!!! FINALLY A TIER LIST VIDEO!!!!!!

I had read a wizard of earth sea this year on your suggestion and it really didn't click with me clear through the end. I thought id love it because I love wizards and I heard there was a dragon but the over all story just didn't hold me and I felt like it doesn't really deserve the praise it gets.

Neat list so many new finds for me

Been a while, your top 10 vid got me into reading. Rn im like 120ish books in(series ofcourse) and am actually curious what you got🤣 Rn im struggling getting into the fifth season after Murtagh lol

Been adding some here and there to my audible wish list (wish I could read books but ADHD + dyslexia + work makes me read documentation a lot so my mind instinctively skips to keywords and jumps between paragraphs on text) And the audible ratings for most your As and Ss are like 4.3-4.5, but the body keeps the score is a straight 5. Excited to read it 😅

I hope you'll read Jin Yong's Condor Trilogy in the future.

Thanks for the video Daniel! I'll definitely be adding a good few of those to my TBR. :) Have you ever watched Owl House? That one was a HUGE surprise how much I loved it! When I first tried watching it, I was bored and turned it off.. but I gave it another shot, and binged it SO fast.

Great tips, for me one too is to trade tv time for reading time and not force myself to read if I don’t feel like it

I heard somewhere that you are going to resume Attack on Titan soon.. cannot wait for that, although we had polar opposite views on the last season. Also, Daniel, I know you really really want to do it, so can we have a Malazan reread please?

You might enjoy the old Warhammer Fantasy novels more so than 40k, purely because the universe is a bit more self-contained. In particular, I recommend the Gotrek and Felix book, partly because it incorporates the wider setting without inundating you with it and gives you a pretty entertaining duo to experience it through, alongside both its own cast and characters from the wider setting.

I started reading Daniel Abraham The Dagger and the Coin series. Finish book 1 the Dragon Path now a ways through The Kings Blood. Very intriguing. The first I’ve read of him. Very political with pretty grey characters, and some POVs I have no clue where they are going. Reminds me a bit of A Feast For Crows. Have any of you read it? Also on book 3 of the Riyria Revelations, didn’t think I would enjoy it at first , kinda silly but now I’m waiting for some more character development of both Ryria characters. You get bits very very slowly. I keep hearing how great they are but very slow developing - Thanks for all your reviews. I’m trying to decide if I want to read 4th wing with my wife. She doesn’t do fantasy but wants to read that.

Genuine recommendation Daniel, I think you should give The Infinite and the Divine a read. It’s a great read and quite funny

only books ive read this year but muderbot book 1 and leviathan wakes are both s tier for me. leviathan wakes got me back into reading, as im just enjoying it so much.

When you say that you won't post a review for Wano until your second readthrough on the channel, does the same hold for egghead? Also this video reminded me that I wanted to order a copy of tress!

Daniel, I recommend watching both seasons of the One Punch Man anime. It follows the manga pretty closely, and it keeps improving as more characters are introduced. It's not the deepest anime, but it has a sense of humor that hits for me more than any other anime I've watched.

After reading Legends and Lattes (because of your videos!) I was in the mood for some great Fantasy Slice of Life books and this more than scratched the itch.

Daniel, any recommendations for people who love the Hitchhiker's Guide series?

Cyberpunk Edgerunners was so damn good, and I rate it similarly: some noticeable flaws, but overall consistently good and well put-together! The web serial Pale finished this year at ~3.8 million words, I can confidently call it my absolute favorite book At a bit more manageable, Scavengers Reign is now one of my favorite animated series of all time in just 12 half-hour episodes

An older SF book, "The Timeline Wars" by John Barnes, might be up your alley. It's been about 20 yers since I read it, but I thought it did such a good job with time travel. I still have fond memories when I think about it, hopefully my memory is still accurate concerning it!

I really want your opinion on the Songs of Chaos series. I have been listening to it on audible and it gives me great Eragon vibes but with a more serious approach.

First of all, love your content!! Secondly, a recommendation: "The Lightning-Struck Heart" by TJ Klune. Do the audiobook😁

@Daniel Greene Please consider reading The Stone Dance of the Chameleon series.

Nothing has ever utterly bewildered me with its popularity like This is how you lose the time war. It was the only popular book I've read that I had to force myself to finish. It felt like it was building to something interesting, but the payoff was utterly toothless, and retroactively made the whole slow grind more painful.

I feel like you might enjoy The Seep by Chana Porter. This unusual story about a an alien invasion where the aliens "infect" humans making everyone feel connected and allowing them to physically change themselves in ridiculous ways. The main story follows a trans woman whose partner has decided to use the Seep to become a baby again and restart life. The story is surreal, psychedelic even a little Horror-esque at points and a very interesting look at grief and moving on. There's a lot of other stuff as well, but it all breezes by at 200 pages.

Time to get some new recommendations

If I had to do this, it would probably mainly be 12 volumes of Dresden Files, the entirety of the Robots/Foundation cycles and the Sanderson secret projects Maybe I should keep track of my opinion on the things I read... Could be fun coming back to them in 5-10 years !

If you're still interested in Warhammer books I HIGHLY recommend the Night Lords trilogy by Aaron Demski-Bowden, it focuses on members of the traitorous 8th Legion of space marines as they careen around the galaxy bringing absolute chaos wherever they go. Somehow manages to be both grimdark but surprisingly funny, genuinely enjoyed it a lot, and the audiobooks are excellent

Sunlit Man was such a blast. But it also got me worried for my favorite characters in the unreleased Stromlight Book 5. It looked like something terrible happened.

i do not know if this book is even considered fantasy, but due to your thorough reading in the genre, i would recommend you The Grey House by Mariam Petrosyan an Armenian author. It is her only book that she wrote for 20 years and her last one as she confirmed. There is nothing to be described about the plot. But everything is peculiar and different regarding prose, character voice etc. I would love for this book to be aknowledged more than it is because i think it is one of a kind.

Black sun is amazing

Going Postal was my start into Discworld! I think maybe Books and Bao was who I found who suggested it as a starting point??

I just finished Blame! a week ago and it made me more appreciative that we live in this world, and not the dystopian mageworld in the manga. Also the goth silicon creatures are so fuckijg epic to look at. I love their style.

A question for @DanielGreeneReviews (knowing full well this may not get a response) are these end-of-year tier lists in the context of OVERALL everything you've read/consumed? Or only out of the everything you've read for that year? Meaning: Is Black Sun an S-tier book in general/along with some of the best books you've ever read? Or just for the year 2023? If the latter, where would you rank it in your personal, all-time tier list?

I started Discworld with Going Postal, highly recommend.

"The best of discworld" Equal Rites? I can't recalled my history too well, which came first Equal Rites or the essay "Why Gandalf never got married" but the essay is my preferred.

whats your thoughts on the Markus Heitz Dwarves series

I actually DNFd Tress about 40% the way through, hope to get through it eventually though.

I agree that there are great Discworld standalones; Monstrous regiment is my favourite Discworld book, and I would always recommend starting with that one. But I wouldn't say Going Postal is a standalone, Making money and Raising steam are also Moist von Lipwig books.

In that case, we can say that each Discworld book has its own complete story that can be read independently. But I think I understand what you mean. Going postal is more dynamic from the start than City Watch books or other series, and it can draw in a reader right away.
