If you are like me, then you are a huge fantasy fan. It is easily my favorite genre and I have to force myself to read to read other books. But for this list, we will be staying with this genre as we share our list of the 21 must read fantasy books of all time!

It's really irresponsible to include Rothfuss and Martin.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Nah, Martin still has a place. He's written a ton beyond A Song of Ice and Fire. The Wildcards series has been going on for over 30 years.

Rothfuss wrote 2 books (I refuse to call whatever the hell is novellas were "books") and has spent the time since going to conventions, playing board games, and raising bees. Which isn't a problem, seems like a pretty chill lifestyle. What is a problem is his continued promises that he's working on the book, getting angry at fans when they ask him about it, and his insistence that he's a modern author despite not putting out a real book for over 15 years now.
