Scanning the offerings at the local big-box bookstore or mercantile website, there’s quite a lot of Science Fiction and Fantasy out there.
Books in these genres get plenty of hype in the geek universe (witness the Fantasy panel at the New York Comic-Con this past weekend), and there are a plethora of ongoing series and thick, epic-sized novels to choose from in the marketplace.
But while it’s entertaining to devour the latest Harry Dresden or Miles Vorkosigan novel, there’s a lot more to fantastic literature than that.
There are many to choose from, but I would like to select thirteen who are particularly worthy of being geeked-out over.
Whether you are looking for a twist on a cherished genre or for something that totally warps your expectations, these writers will provoke and delight you at every turn.
