I just finished the final book in Daniel Abrahams, the Dagger and the Coin series. First book was the Dragons Path. I'm listening to them all over again now. Just incredible

Is that a nomination?
I always go back to my good ole Paul Kearney's - The Monarchies of God. Classic fireside grimdarkness. You will need the fire to warm your soul.Igor

^and I will second that!
Love his SF work so I am eager to try the fantasy one.
I'll third it. Abraham's Long Price Quartet is one of my favorite series, and I've been looking for a good excuse to start reading his Dagger and Coin books.
Mirror's Truth by Michael R. Fletcher. The first book was absolute dark and mind blowing .
Mod
The Grey Bastards by Jonathan French
The Grim Company by Luke Scull
The Dragon's Path by Daniel Abraham
Shadow Of The Wolf by Chris Carlsen
The Mirror’s Truth by Michael R. Fletcher
Hawkwood's Voyage by Paul Kearney (I'm assuming this is the one you meant Igor?)
The Gap Into Conflict: The Real Story by Stephen R. Donaldson is Science Fiction, any objections to including it in the poll?
I will be closing the nomination thread on Sunday 11th December.

we already have lots of nominations so self nom might be better saved for march/april. could be even exclusive for self nom only to avoid competition with the big names.
I like the idea of an exclusive month for self-noms. Though if you allow them against the big names, they probably won't win but might get a little exposure, that wouldn't hurt them.
Mod
That is an awesome idea!

Sorry Nicholas, we read that last year.

I'm nominating "Half a King" by Joe Abercrombie

I'm sorry Brian, that is the third book in the series. You can nominate either the first in the series (unless we have read book 1 already) or a stand alone. Feel free to nominate something else.
