Fantasy Bestseller Picks for January 2023

January 27, 2023 by Darryl Leave a Comment

Depending on where you are physically located in the world, you might find yourself in the middle of winter or the middle of summer this month. It’s a cold, damp winter day where I am.

Wherever you are, hopefully you can find time to get lost in a great fantasy book.

This month features bestselling epic fantasy books from Amazon’s Top 100 list, with personal top picks from both paid and free lists. We’ll be including more options beyond Amazon in the future, but this list will help point you in the direction of new adventures.

What makes an epic fantasy truly epic? Yes, there are specific characteristics that help publishers classify various sub-genres, but there are many fantasy books that readers would happily refer to as an “epic” adventure story.

It’s the kind of story that carries you away to a completely unique time and/or place and yet, after you finish reading, you find yourself in the same place. But perhaps a little more grounded.

That’s what we’re talking about here.
