So, I’m officially declaring the first week of favorites month a roaring success. I spent the week eating, sleeping and breathing Carrie Vaughn, but now we move on. Onwards, to the wonderful and talented Anne Bishop. She is, without question, the first author (as an adult) I could really call a favorite. My cousin recommended the Black Jewels trilogy to me when I was in high school, and those books, literally. changed. my. world.

I probably read other fantasy books before this, probably a lot. But this series was my gateway. I even vaguely remember reading the first chapter for the first time, even though it was years ago and I’ve read that entire series more than a few times over. It stuck with me and made SURE I knew that I didn’t want to settle for reality. I wanted magic powers, and epic romance and everything else that comes with fantasy at its finest. To me, THAT is Anne Bishop at its finest.

I will be doing yet another giveaway so that one of you can share in the wonderful worlds that Anne Bishop has created. So be sure to stay tuned this week!

Do you love Anne Bishop? Tell me why!
