Matterhorn: A Novel of the Vietnam War *NM* Orange Send a noteboard - 07/02/2013 11:56:11 AM
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 1091 Views

Well, depends on how broadly you want to define genres, I suppose... Larry - 07/01/2013 01:09:34 AM 1540 Views
Lord of Light- has some similarities to WOT in terms of themes IndigoAjahV2 - 07/01/2013 01:27:01 AM 1187 Views
It's a great book, though Chronicles of Amber would seem closer to WoT Isaac - 15/01/2013 01:01:25 AM 1134 Views

For me it's a draw between Patrick Rothfuss: "The wise Man's Fear" and Vidarfe - 07/01/2013 01:17:14 PM 1191 Views
Possibly The Long Earth by Stephen Baxter and Terry Pratchett. Stephen - 07/01/2013 07:27:36 PM 1248 Views

You try the Wars of Light and Shadow by Janny Wurts? *NM* Ryan - 03/02/2013 03:44:51 AM 657 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 541 Views
