If you like… Mythological Fantasy

This week we have a genre freebie for Top 10 Tuesday, and I am going with Top 10 Mythological Fantasy Books. I really do like a plot where the gods get interested in mortal affairs, leading to much chaos β€” and great world-building.

1 / The Chalion Series / World of the Five Gods series by Lois McMaster Bujold

2 / Inheritance Trilogy by N. K. Jemisin

3 / Paternus Trilogy by Dyrk Ashton

4 / Malazan Book of the FallenΒ Series by Steven Erikson

5 / Edda of Burdens trilogy by Elizabeth Bear

6 / The Queen’s Thief Series by Megan Whalen Turner

7 / Tales of the Magatama Series by Noriko Ogiwara

8 / Indulgence Series by Erin Kellison

9 / The Wicked + The Divine saga by Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie

10 / The Library at Mount CharΒ by Scott Hawkins

Have you read or are you interested any of these mythological fantasy books? Please feel free to leave as many recs as possible too!

I love this topic! I have The Library at Mount Char and The Inheritance Trilogy on my TBR, but I’m definitely going to have to look into some more of these. I love the covers of the books on your list, though.

YES. I love mythological fantasy! I’ve wanted to read The Wicked and the Divine for so long! Those covers for the Indulgence series are insane. I want to get them just for those. Wow! The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms sounds interesting as well. Thank you for all the recommendations πŸ™‚

I’ve only read the first Queen’s Thief book and had forgotten the mythological aspects. Maybe I should continue with the series – I guess I just haven’t been in the mood for fantasy lately.
