Love how these all have ratings already.....
Some of these have ratings due to ARCs being provided by publishers... I think anyhow.
Well yes, but, come on, Doors of Stone? Winds of Winter? I doubt those will even be out before 2015.
I guess it could also be over zealous fans as well.
No way Winds of Winter comes out this year.
Heck, I bet we see Winds of Winter before Doors of Stone.
Winds of winter is not coming out in 2013. maybe next year, if we're lucky but something tells me we're not gonna be that lucky.

so... why is 1984 by George Orwell on this list?
Okay, I laughed when I saw Winds of Winter on there. GRRM delayed Dance with Dragons for /years/.Expect to wait another 5-6 years. Although with HBO on his back, he may be compelled to write faster.
I used to query mine - almost every time someone had just clicked the wrong 'of thorns' book - often on a mobile which misregistered their touch/click.
How can Brandon Sanderson write so much?? He is actually unbelievable, I don't think any author actually writes as much as he does (and we are not talking 200 page novellas either). It really is amazing.

And he does it full time.. so, utter devotion to his works, I guess?
The doors of stone is not going to be 2013 anymore so it should not even be here.
The Doors of Stone, in a recent video interview, Pat indicated that this will probably be released in 2014.
Why not have Fantasy and sci-fi separate?
Seriously? i mean seriously?As a huge fan of scifi, why o why, does everyone put sci fi and fantasy in same basket?
what do little wizards, drows, vampires, ware-xyz, druids, faries and other emo beings have with scifi so everyone classifies them together?
I got frustrated as i was looking for some recomendation for reading and all i see is endless sea of teenage romance fantasy stuff...
Ok i get some ppl like that, but again, why-o-why put sci fi and fantasy together? :)

go make your own list if it pisses you off. i do this for me, for fun. i voted for FIVE books and i didn't expect over 2000 voters. it's not supposed to be taken seriously. if you want actual recommendations, just ask someone!
Really, it is pointless to combine SF and Fantasy in one poll. Slim pickin's for the SF folks. I think they stay away from this kind of confusion of the genres. I see no trouble with looking for recommendations in a poll like this but it is rather one-sided by the look of it.
Roshio wrote: "How can Brandon Sanderson write so much?? He is actually unbelievable, I don't think any author actually writes as much as he does (and we are not talking 200 page novellas either). It really is am..."Brandon writes as literally a full-time job. As in, he generally works on his books eight hours a day. He has finished works not yet published, and he feeds on his own creativity. Still...Brandon is a special case, too. I honestly don't know any other writers as purely talented as Brandon.
Grack21 wrote: "Heck, I bet we see Winds of Winter before Doors of Stone."yep
The 486 people voting for The Winds of Winter are wishful thinkers if they believe that thing is going to be released in 2013. ;)
Those of you waiting on George Martin, Patrick Rothfuss or Deborah Harkness should "dig" into the Wool trilogy by Hugh Howey. You won't be disappointed and you can read straight thru without waiting years!!!!!
keep the vampire/werewolf porn out of the fantasy listings please
