I saw this on numerous Tops of 2008 lists and picked it up over the Christmas Holiday. I just finished reading it this afternoon while taking a short break from work and all I can say is that I was completely blown away by this novel. Absolutely incredible. The wit of Fermín Romero de Torres is hilarious, and left me with a few great one liners to use in everday conversation. I couldn’t agree with you more.

Still need to read The Last Argument of Kings and The Born Queen, too. I'm glad you made a favorites list since I like seeing what everyone picks for the most outstanding books read over the year. Like you, I struggled with making one of those lists since I also haven't read nearly enough books published in 2008 to pick a "best." But then, how many people have?

I don't have a number one fantasy novel. I can't decide. Anyway WATCHMEN is the best graphic novel I read in 2008. I totally agree with you concerning THE SHADOW OF THE WIND.
