Looking for an epic read

[Judgejudyandexecutioner]

Looking for a book/book series to get my teeth into.

What genre?

What type of books do you like?

Thrillers, Sci Fi, Fantasy love a post apocalyptic. Have read The Stand, Tolkien 1Q84., Dark Tower Series
Willing to give most things a go

Just not a Romance girl!

Have you read Robin Hobb?

The Dark is Rising (series by Susan Cooper)
Great time if year to start read them :)

Val McDermid (Tony and Carol series; Karen Pirie series)

Robert Galbraith (Strike series)

CJ Samson (Shardlake series)

Hilary Mantel (Cromwell trilogy)

Not read either of those will check them out thank you

The Mick Herron Slough House spy thrillers. They're brilliantly written, funny and clever.

If you like fantasy, David Wingrove's Chung Kuo series has 20 books.
If you like historical fiction, Winston Graham's Poldark has 12 books.

The War Lord Chronicles? By Bernard Cornwell who wrote The Last Kingdom.

Hugh Howey’s Silo Trilogy - Wool, Dust, and Shift.

Restoration by Rose Tremain, and it's sequel. Similar to Shardlake but better, IMO.

Stuart McBride or Helen Fields.

If you like YA then the Throne of Glass series is one of the best imo (hence my username)

I second Galbraith, Cornwall. Also can recommend the Simon Serrailler series.

If you like history Sarum by Edward Rutherford is awesome.

Station 11
Project Hail Mary

Cloud Atlas

Robin Hobb’s sagas are amazing!! Anything by Brandon Sanderson is also great.

Have you read The Expance?

manda Scott’s Boudicca series

Jeffery weaver - lots of different series in the same universe
The hollow corn series

Shogun by James Clavell or anything by James Michener.

Raymond E. Feist and Janny Wurst's "Midkemia" - start with "Magician" and keep going. They are definitely epic! 😁 fantasy .
"Maia" by Richard Adams ( the Watership Down guy, but definitely not for kids!) is very good too.
The Passage (I think there are three now?) was a good apocalypse read.
The Amtrak Wars series by Patrick Tilley is a far future post apocalypse series I enjoyed.
Guy Gavriel Kaye writes good epic fantasy.

I agree

not the court of sex and smut though
first one was ok, but the later ones were bad
