Tigana by Guy Gavriel Kay is a great fantasy novel. It's the fantasy novel for people who don't read fantasy, In the story, a fictitious land is invaded by two foreign conqueror/sorcerors. When one of the conqueror's sons is killed in the proince of Tigana, he descends and destroys it, but not content, tries to erase its very name with a very special spell. This is the backdrop that sets the story in motion. There is magic in the story, but it's one in a realistic way. Kay's Tigana feels like a real place. A great read.

5 new novelists every fantasy fan should know about 39 weeks 58 min ago

I first discovered Nathalie Mallet’s talents a couple of years ago when I reviewed her first novel, The Princes of the Golden Cage. I instantly fell for her type of story. It’s not just fantasy.
