I am interested in reading one of your books to get to know you as an author. What one would you recommend I start with? I am a fan of R.J. Anderson, Megan Whalen Turner, CS Lewis, and Intisar Khanani, just to give you an idea of the types of fantasy I read and enjoy.

M.L. Farb Hi Sharon. You have an excellent taste in authors. I’m just getting to know (and very much enjoy) RJ Anderson’s novels, and I've read everything I can from the other three.

So which book?

If you want adventure and kingdom politics with faith elements, try the King's Trial and King’s Shadow. Many readers compare these books to CS Lewis's writing.

If you are looking for a sweet love story combined with adventure, you might like Vasilisa. It is a retelling of the Russian fairytale Vasilisa and Staver.

If you enjoy lyrical writing about sisterhood and healing family, try Fourth Sister. It is a Whitney Award Finalist, and though it is slower paced than my other books, it is in many ways my favorite.

For riddles and a monumental character arc, Heartless Hette is a German based tale of a princess who goes on a quest to get her stolen heart back. Be warned, the main character is not likable at the beginning.

I hope this helps. Have a beautiful day.
