We LOVE funny fantasy and science fiction! We’ve recommended Terry Pratchett’s and Douglas Adams’s books many times, but today we’re bringing you a list of funny fantasy and sci-fi books that are lesser-known but still great! (Thanks to our friend Abby, a hoopy frood who helped us with this list!)

Ahoy, mateys! There are avast number of SF/F books that take place on the high seas (or spaceways), and we always like to seas the day. So today we’re recommending some great fantasy and sci-fi books involving pirates!
It’s almost St. Patrick’s Day! In honor of that (and our Irish roots) we put together a list of great Celtic fantasy and mythology books.
Valentine’s Day is almost here! Maybe you like to read romance all year round, or perhaps you’re mostly interested in it during this time of year. Either way, if you’re a fan of romantic fantasy books, check out this list of great “romantasies” that we’ve compiled here!
Have we gone to the dogs? Hear meow-t on this one! Humor can help you live long and paws-purr. So crack open a novel that cracks you up—and if you want some stellar suggestions, check out the list of laugh-out-loud fantasy and sci-fi books that we’ve compiled below!
If you like books about people turned into animals, or spells that influence behavior, or cursed creatures or other hexes, read on! We’ve compiled an un-frog-gettable list this week of books involving curses and enchantments. You’ll wolf them down and ask were you can find more!
Wondering what to get for the nerd(s) or geek(s) in your life? Or what to buy with the gift cards you receive as holiday presents? Well, look no further, because we’ve compiled a massive list covering more than a dozen different popular fandoms!
(By the way, we don’t say “nerd” and “geek” pejoratively. We’re proud nerds, and not just the bookish kind. We’re into most of the fandoms listed below!) It’s spooky season, and that’s claws for celebration in our book! If you, like we, are in the mood for some books with a little bite to them, read on. This week, we’re recommending some excellent vampire and werewolf books.
Joust the other knight, I was thinking about how neat it would be to travel back in time to somewhere like medieval England or Edo-period Japan. Or maybe peer amid some ancient Egyptian wonders while on a magic carpet ride!
Isn't it beautiful how fiction allows us to have such rich experiences from the comfort of our own homes (complete with indoor plumbing)? If you're looking for some historical-fantasy adventures, check out the ten awesome ones we've listed below! Perhaps you’ve heard the saying “Any portal fantasy in a storm” . . . well, that’s our version of it, anyway. 😉 (Since we do have so many reading options, we like to consider them carefully!)
Weather or not your life is particularly stormy right now, you still might be craving that perfect literary escape. It’s important to many people to get good reading recommendations—which is what we’re here for! No book is perfect, but we think these are ship-shape! So sail on into this list, and we wish you a bookish bon voyage! |
