Case Files of Henri Davenforth by Honor Raconteur - human woman gets taken to a world with magic, where she works as a policeman, having been FBI on earth, lots of fun and doesn't take itself too seriously
The Innkeeper Chronicles by Ilona Andrew's - an Innkeeper with magic who hosts all sorts of aliens
Mage's Guide to Human Familiars by A J Sherwood - lots of bonkers fun
GL Carriger's werewolf series - I read her YA series first under Gail Carriger, starting with Soulless, which is fab too
S J Himes/Sheena Jolie (changed pen names recently) Necromancer of Boston series, more vampires than true corpses in this series thankfully! Plus the odd elf and dragon
Kate Stradling's Namesake - love this book! It's maybe YA but it's really good - she rewrites fairy tales too, which I also enjoy a lot
Simon R Green's Forest Kingdom series - old now, but a rollicking read. Also his Deathsalker series - OTT space opera and a blast! Also old now though, his Ishmael Jones series is his most recent, about an alien pretending to be human and solving locked room mysteries!
BR Kingsolver's books (except her first series, couldn't get on with that) - more of an urban fantasy slant
Alice Winters- she writes all sorts of fantasy
Louse Masters - I like her books about the Hidden Species and Here Be Dragons best
Jennifer Estep's long running Spider series, about a female assassin with magic
It seems I read a lot of fantasy!
Question for you other fantasy lovers - really enjoyed Jennifer Estep's Only Bad Options space opera style fantasy novel - a mix of magic, blasters, tech and space travel 😁 Any other authors you can recommend who write similarly??
