There is no single answer to this, as tastes vary, but there are definitely some authors that appeal to many readers who love this genre. Some of the best examples of this in recent years include Neil Gaiman, whose novel Stardust was recently made into a movie, giving him more mainstream popularity than he ever had before. Stardust is not quite an urban fantasy, as most of it takes place in the "Otherworld. Some of Gaiman's other novels, such as American Gods and Neverwhere are more pure examples of urban fantasy. In these and other novels, Gaiman introduces bizarre creatures into the everyday world in a way that seems plausible. In this way, it's similar to horror, the kind found in the best Stephen King novels, where the ordinary gradually becomes more and more strange and terrible. Some of his better known novels include Onion Girl, Memory and Dream and Widdershins. In this way, he explores the connection between creativity and other dimensions of reality. If you are an admirer of John Crowley, you might also want to explore his four-volume series of novels, Aegypt. These are just a few examples of what might be considered the best fantasy books for urban fantasy lovers. ==== ==== Buy a Book http://alturl.com/ikbnb ==== ====
