I generally have trouble coming up with "favorites," even within narrow genres. If I had to choose though, The Ivory is my favorite (set of) fantasy book(s). Easily. The blending of the Science Fiction and Fantasy elements is elegant. The protagonist, Theodora, comes from a culture similar enough...

This one is more hectic and exciting than the first book in the series (although that was by no means dull). It's a page-turner, which I found hard to put down, although I've read it before.
Another way of putting it is that it's moving more briskly through the plot and now lingering less over particular...

The Tainted was a wonderful conclusion to the Isles of Glory trilogy. Despite being the longest, it was the fastest read for me. Between the build-up to the Change, the introduction of new characters, the ending, and especially some long-awaited FEELS, it's my favorite book of the three.
