I read quite a bit of Fantasy/Urban Fantasy but most were part of a series and I'm just including the first book of each series. I'll be posting my Romance/Women's Fiction favorites next.
Favorite Fantasy/Urban Fantasy SF Reads for 2024:
(Click on cover for Goodreads link)
The Alex Verus series by Benedict Jacka
Fated is book one and I've read through book 6 and started book 7 but stopped because things got intense and I need to listen straight through. Can't do that while on vacation with family!
An Inheritance of Magic by Benedict Jacka
This is his new series and only two books are out now. An Instruction in Shadow is the newest release and after reading these I went back and started the Alex Verus series.
Winter Lost (Mercy Thompson #14) by Patricia Briggs
My all-time favorite UF series!
My Life as a White Trash Zombie (White Trash Zombie #1) by Diana Rowland
I've wanted to read this series for a long time and was pushed to do it with Anne @Books of My Heart read-along. The audios are fantastic!
Disturbing the Dead (A Rip Through Time #3) by Kelley Armstrong
This was hard to categorize since it's mostly a historical mystery, but as the main character traveled back in time I put it in the fantasy category.
The Tainted Cup (Shadow of the Leviathan #1) by Robert Jackson Bennett
Very original!
Four Minutes by Brian Andrews & Jeffrey Wilson
Fun and fast paced! The only science fiction book on my list. Need book two!
Ellie Jordan, Ghost Trapper (Ellie Jordan, Ghost Trapper #1) by J.L. Bryan
I've listened to book two as well and will be continuing the series.
Bride by Ali Hazelwood
I've had some hit and misses with Hazelwood, but loved this one!
Are any of these on your list?
