Reading List: the books I love

I love books. I started out as an avid reader before I began writing.
These are some of my absolute favourite authors and series.

Urban Fantasy

Annette Marie – everything she’s written is great, but my favourites are all in her Guild Codex series.

Seanan McGuire – I love her October Daye series

Rachel Aaron – I loved both her dragon series: DFZ (Minimum Wage Magic) and Heartstrikers (Nice Dragons finish last)

Sarah Painter – love her Crow Investigations series

Paranormal women’s fiction

KF Breene – her Leveling up series is a romp

Shannon Mayer – her Forty Proof Series is great

Other genres

Travis Bagwell – his Awaken online series is un-put-downable

Neil Gaiman – a legend. Everything he writes is fascinating

Neal Stephenson – another great. I particularly like Anathem and Cryptonomicon
