Top ten Tuesdays was created by and hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. This week it is authors you think do not get enough recognition. Here is my top ten, in no particular order. Some are fairly well known but more people need to know about them in my opinion.
1. Janice Hardy – She wrote the Pain merchants trilogy. Which has become one of my favourite series. It’s original and full of wonder.
2. Kate Bloomfield – who wrote the Fire Mage trilogy. I have not yet read the second one, but I loved the first. It was clever and full of original magic. (Shows how under recognised she is, I could not find one related article.
3. Robin LaFevers – You may have heard of her book Grave Mercy about female assassins. It’s well written and captivating, I just think more people need to know about her.
4. Scoot Nicholson – He wrote the fear series (Liquid Fear and Chronic Fear). It’s a crime thriller. Very thrilling.
5. Jessica Soreneson – She has had a lot bad press, she writes young adult fiction and has started to write New adult fiction. Her books are definitely for people who can handle teen angst in books.
6. Joseph Lallo – He wrote The Book of Deacon series. If you like dragons and magic then this series is for you.
7. Nicole Williams – She wrote the Eden series, it’s YA but original and intriguing.
8. Maria V. Snyder – You have probably heard of her, but have you read her books? They are really good and each series is unique and offers something different.
9. Trudi Canavan – Once again you have probably heard of her, but she needs more people to read her Age Of the Five series, and also to bring a new series out because I want to read more from her.
10. Sarah Bryant – My favourite book by her is City of the Sun and it is very difficult to get, but It is so worth it.

So, I haven’t read books by any of these authors. But never fear! I actually bought Grave Mercy and Dark Triumph for my birthday – just haven’t gotten around to reading them yet! I’m glad to hear they impressed you enough that you included the author on your list. I look forward to reading them 🙂
I have not yet read Dark Triumph but am looking forward to it. 🙂 Hope you like them.
I’ll have to look these authors up, I love finding new authors to read! 🙂 Happy reading!

Thank you, ye I do too, I have a list longer than I can keep track of, of books and authors I want to read. This is one reason I like doing a blog so much, you find other people’s blogs and see their reviews and become to trust their point of view, so you are more likely to find a book you like.
I only know two of these – Janice Hardy and Trudi Canavan. Always great to hear about new authors!
Ye, I am glad you have heard of Janice Hardy, I found her series by accident in the Works and gave it to my sister for her birthday, she read it in 2days, (which is very quick for her) and told me to read it there and then. Ye it’s good to hear what fellow readers think of certain books and authors, especially like-minded readers.

I’ve been surfing online more than three
hours today, yet I never found any interesting article
like yours. It’s pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all webmasters and bloggers made good content as you did, the
web will be a lot more useful than ever before.
thank you, a lot of bloggers do the top ten Tuesdays, the idea was my the Broke and the Bookish. It’s good to hear people enjoying my opinions so thank you again.
