Today I’m posting using a theme I’ve seen around the blogosphere as part of the Wyrd and Wonder event.  Check out this and this post who have already tackled this topic in wonderful fashion.  Basically, describe five of your favourite fantasy books in five words.  Actually, this was tougher than I expected but here goes:

Certain Dark Things by Silvia Moreno-Garcia

– Aztec vampires feuding in Mexico

Red Sister (Book of the Ancestor #1) by Mark Lawrence

– Kickass assassin nuns in training

The Princess Bride by William Goldman

– Pirates? Princesses? True love? Inconceivable

Spoonbenders by Daryl Gregory

– Dysfunctional psychic family meets gangsters

Heartstone by Elle Katharine White

– Pride, Prejudice, Dragons… oh my!
