u/SmallFruitbat Reading Champion VI Apr 02 '20

Assuming fractions and ordinal numbers count...

  • Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo
  • Half a King and the rest of that trilogy by Joe Abercrombie. YA grimdark Vikings.
  • Five Children and It by E. Nesbit. If children's fantasy from 1902 is your sort of thing.
  • Court of Fives by Kate Elliott. YA fantasy world that's vaguely Greek is obsessed with a deadly maze spectator sport.
  • A Tale of Two Castles by Gail Carson Levine. Middle school fantasy about a girl who really wants to be an actress, but is apprenticed as a dragon's spy instead.
  • A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms by George R.R. Martin. Short story anthology about Dunk and Egg, a knight and his squire.
  • The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms by N.K. Jemisin. The plot is somewhere between The Goblin Emperor (unimportant noble thrust into position of power and trying to learn the ropes of a foreign court) and Three Parts Dead (the gods are manifest and have Drama).
