Suggested Reading

Readers often ask me for reading suggestions or about books that are like KDT, so I have put together a list of books you might enjoy. The list is far from complete, but I could probably go on for days. For most of these, I’ve fallen behind in the series and haven’t read all the books. I’ve been busy. 😃

Please feel free to comment and add your favorites to the list!

    I love that you have Terry Goodkind up on top of your list! I have always been a huge fan of his writing. 🙂 Much more during his earlier years.. but he’s amazing in any case. 🙂

    Definitely helped me decide that I want to check out your books!
