I love the book series “The Magicians.” One of my favorite book series of all times. I like that these lists include some fantasy classics but new ones as well. I just finished reading satirical fantasy novel “The King Who Disappeared” by Hank Quense and I think it is definitely a must read! This isn’t your typical fantasy quest novel featuring wizards, elves, kings and queens… I mean…it has all those elements BUT it’s written in such a clever and unique way… for example; in the world of Gundarland, the wizards use scryer networks that allow them to send messages of no more than 140 runes long (haha… Tweet much?) It is light-hearted, entertaining and one of my favorite reads so far this summer. You can read more about the author and the book here: http://hankquense.org/wp/ (let me know what you think if you end up checking it out!) Happy Reading!
