After AMOL, I'm looking for something new, so let me ask - What was the best book you read in 2012? Anonymous2000 Send a noteboard - 06/01/2013 10:44:24 PM
No limitations (but obviously I'm partial to sci-fi/fantasy, and also history).

So:

What was the best book that you read in 2012 (or series)?

Unless obvious, what is it about, briefly?

What makes it so great?

Thanks!

Yes. The one I own is The Zimmermann Telegram, which is also great. Legolas - 07/01/2013 05:48:48 PM 1068 Views

Well, depends on how broadly you want to define genres, I suppose... Larry - 07/01/2013 01:09:34 AM 1508 Views
Lord of Light- has some similarities to WOT in terms of themes IndigoAjahV2 - 07/01/2013 01:27:01 AM 1155 Views
It's a great book, though Chronicles of Amber would seem closer to WoT Isaac - 15/01/2013 01:01:25 AM 1106 Views

For me it's a draw between Patrick Rothfuss: "The wise Man's Fear" and Vidarfe - 07/01/2013 01:17:14 PM 1162 Views

Check out the work by David Weber or L E Modesitt Jr if you have't already; both are excellent. *NM* HyogaRott - 04/02/2013 01:06:39 PM 526 Views
