for books to be floppy, they have to be printed 'long grain', i.e. the grain of the paper runs vertically down the book's page. 'short grain' books have horizontal grain and these are the ones that you tend to need to break the spine of, because the grain of the paper isn't in the same direction of the spine. typically, books printed conventionally (on a web press or similar) will be long grain and digitally printed books will be short grain. whether a book is printed convetionally or digitally can be determined by many factors such as paper type, print run and printer capacity. hope that helps!

It's a tough situation! At this point I wish he'd give another writer any ideas he has and let them write an ending. Then if he ever gets motivated again be can write the version he wants, and we'll just have 2 possible endings. If you haven't, check out The Lightning Tree, it's a short story published in a really good anthology of stories edited by G.R.R. Martin. It's not a continuation of the plot but it's about Bast, and who doesn't need a good Bast fix! There's another short novella but I didn't care for it as much, still if you just really enjoy this world you'll probably like both.

It's one of my favourit middle grade series, the humor isn't for everyone (so maybe try the first one and see if you like it) but the magic system, world buiding and characters are all so good! Arcanum Unbounded is also awsome, it's a short story collection with all of Brandons cosmere short stories, one of which got a hugo award! Plus there are short essays written by a scientist from one of the worlds who writes about the different planets.

All great books (from the last 20 years purposefully leaving out all the old gods of fantasy writing). Surprised not to see Canavan, Mclellan, Islington or Brett just to mention a few, but I would be hard pressed to replace anyone on your 10 item list aswell. Should I mention just one author from the last 20 years, it would be Joe Abercrombie. I just love his way of writing characters. Their personality development is like molecular gastronomy, you expect one thing and get another.

So happy to see more love for the Liveship books. The Farseer novels are great, but the Liveship arc ties it alllll together. Will be adding the City of Stairs books, they sound really interesting--I love gods-based stories. The way gods interact with the mortal world is one of the main reasons the Malazan Book of the Fallen is my all-time favorite series of any genre. I'd love to know how you felt about the ending of the Green Bone saga. I think they absolutely nailed it. (this is the first video of yours I've watched, so if you've addressed it in a different video forgive me I haven't found it yet!)

Thank you for these! I haven't read most of these and was in desperate need of something to read. I fly through book incredibly fast and needed something new.

This is my most anticipated video of the year. Super excited to add all of them to my TBR. Brandon Sanderson is my absolute favorite.

Brent Weeks - Light Bringer trilogy is good one too, more dark and brutal fantasy with a very interesting magic system

Agreed! The magic system is epic. Can see some of the series on the shelf behind her.

Some excellent stuff here and some I need to check out. I’m happy to see Locke Lamorra here, and the Liveship Traders was incredible. I’d throw in the writers that really got me into fantasy - David Gemmell and Tad William’s Memory Sorrow & Thorn. Oh, and Guy Gabriel Kay’s Tigana and A Song For Arbonne.

These are all so intimidating but also alluring! Is there any romance in them?! (particularly on the Brandon Sanderson ones!)

There's a a fantasy webnovel that I have really enjoyed that seems to have physical copies as well. It is called Supreme magus it's a story about a severely abused person going through his life and reincarnating into a mystical world where he remembers his past lives, and how he deals with his traumas as he tries to grow and learn about the new world I love the magic system and the Enchanted item-crafting it even has magic schools it feels like a longer darker more intense version of Harry Potter where the main character is kind of a as* that grows. Super recommended

KZitem has shown me this video as suggested and I’m so happy to have run into it! Thank you so much! I read fast and every time I finish another Saga there is a problem what to read next, and you’ve given me 2 authors I haven’t read! In my turn I want to mention the author that impressed me and made my top 10 fantasy writers - Guy Gavriel Kay. I loved his The Sarantine Mosaic Series and Under Heaven dilogy. Thanks again! Liked, subscribed, keep up the good work!
