THE BEST BOOKS 2010 ~ Best Fantasy of 2010 This list highlights a rich spectrum of epic fantasy, ranging from the continuation of long-beloved sagas to groundbreaking new voices. Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson’s Towers of Midnight carries the Wheel of Time toward its climactic finale, while Sanderson also launches his ambitious Stormlight Archive with The Way of Kings, setting a new standard for modern epic fantasy. Alongside them, Brent Weeks’ The Black Prism introduces a magic system rooted in light and color, and Peter V. Brett’s The Desert Spear expands his demon-plagued world with themes of survival and cultural clash. Classic authors like Terry Brooks in Bearers of the Black Staff, Stephen R. Donaldson in Against All Things Ending, and Robin Hobb in Dragon Haven continue their sweeping, character-driven series with the depth and emotional weight readers expect. Meanwhile, other works bring fresh creativity and unique mythologies. N.K. Jemisin’s The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms and Nnedi Okorafor’s Who Fears Death both offer powerful, diverse perspectives on gods, heritage, and destiny, reshaping the genre’s boundaries. China Miéville’s Kraken blends surrealism with urban fantasy, while Paul Hoffman’s The Left Hand of God delivers a dark, gothic coming-of-age tale. Jacqueline Carey’s Naamah’s Curse and Juliet Marillier’s Seer of Sevenwaters mix myth, romance, and destiny in lush prose, while Sharon Shinn’s Troubled Waters and Anne Bishop’s Shalador’s Lady offer magical worlds centered on politics and personal power. Guy Gavriel Kay’s Under Heaven brings his lyrical, historical-inspired style to a story set in a reimagined Tang Dynasty China, and Blake Charlton’s Spellwright stands out with its inventive word-magic. Collectively, these novels showcase epic fantasy at its most ambitious—balancing tradition and innovation, mythic storytelling and intimate human drama. CONTENT: 1.
