The Women of Fantasy

These are books I've overlooked-mostly found by looking them up at the author's respective websites. I haven't read any of these yet.

Sunshine – a vampire/armageddon type of book by one of my favorite authors – Robin McKinley. This book sounds very different than her usually feminist fantasy/fairy retelling offerings but I’m more than willing to give it a try.

The Dark Mirror: Book One of the Bridei Chronicles - by another favorite author, Juliet Marillier, who wrote Daughter of the Forest, one of my all time favorite books ever. Marillier specializes in historical fantasy and doesn’t disappoint.

Wolfskin (Tor Fantasy) - another offering from Juliet Marillier

Wrapt in Crystal, a standalone by Sharon Shinn. Her other stand alone books have been very good and though I usually prefer series, I’m looking forward to reading this one.

Fortune's Fool (Tales of the Five Hundred Kingdoms, Book 3) by Mercedes Lackey. The sequel is on the shelves now but I want to read this one first (this is the third book in the Tales of the Five Hundred Kingdoms series).

Fire Study (Study, Book 3), by Maria V. Snyder, after Poison Study and Magic Study. Looking forward to this one.
