Frasier’s Favourites of 2024

January 1, 2025 by Frasier Armitage Leave a Comment

2024 has been a monster year for SFF. From indie fungalpunk-noir (like Mushroom Blues by Adrian M. Gibson) to brand new epic fantasy series (The Gods Below by Andrea M. Gibson) to time-loop romances (A Quantum Love Story by Mike Chen) to fantasy-creature-compendium-encyclopaedias (Loreland Bestiaries by Hope Christofferson) and innovative weird fiction that I still can’t fully describe (Three Eight One by Aliya Whiteley), it’s been jam-packed with incredible books that I’ve adored. Figuring out my favourites of the year has melted my brain a little, but after a lot of eeny-meeny-miny-moe, I’ve somehow whittled it down, and here are my top five books from 2024.

Ninth Life by Stark Holborn

Quite simply one of the best books I’ve ever read.

We Are All Ghosts In The Forest by Lorraine Wilson

A folkloric masterwork that changes the landscape of what sci-fi can be.

Interstellar Megachef by Lavanya Lakshminarayan 

Pure space-baking fun.

All This And More by Peng Shepherd

Time twisting Choose Your Own Adventure for grown ups.

Daughter Of Calamity by Rosalie M. Lin

Superb historical fantasy genre-blending from an emerging talent. 

Review: https://fanfiaddict.com/review-daughter-of-calamity-by-rosalie-m-lin/


Congratulations to every single SFF writer who released a book in 2024. It’s been amazing to see such a variety across the genres. You are all my heroes.

I can’t wait to see what 2025 holds for us!
