If you’re looking for new books along the lines of Brandon Sanderson’s, “Servant of a Dark God” is great. It’s the first book in a trilogy by John Brown and is crazy good. This is actually his first book, which is really surprising because it is so well done. I seriously couldn’t put it down. It’s very well written and is a fresh take on the fantasy genre. You should check it out at http://johndbrown.com/novels/

Well, and I actually found Canticle to be even better than Lamentation. It is amazing to me that these are Ken’s first two novels.

I just finished the first volume and found it to be a delightfully baroque piece, reminiscent of Vance and of Moorcock – but wholly its own thing.

Excellent stuff.
