Loading... Jonathan Strange & Mr NorrellLibraryThing combined recommendations | |
- Rodo recommends His Majesty's Dragon by Naomi Novik
- hiredman recommends To Say Nothing of the Dog; or, How We Found the Bishop's Bird Stump at Last by Connie Willis
- TheSpecialistsCat recommends Lud-In-The-Mist by Hope Mirrlees, "Both Clarke and Mirrlees lived briefly in Spain, then returned home to write about fairies and also, ostensibly, what it means to be English."
- Anonymous user recommends The Meaning of Night: A Confession by Michael Cox
- Anonymous user recommends American Gods by Neil Gaiman
- Booksloth recommends The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
- SiSarah recommends Anathem by Neal Stephenson, "While Anathem is science fiction and Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell is historical fantasy, they share many themes in common (the nature and value of knowledge (see more) and study, the responsibilities of those who possess such knowledge, contact with a strange yet familiar "other" civilization). They both stretch the bounds of their genres and have deceptively simple plots that unfold slowly, and have great depth to the writing."
- ks78212 recommends The Bell at Sealey Head by Patricia A. McKillip
- Obdormio recommends The Dark Is Rising by Susan Cooper
- derelicious recommends The Book of Lost Things by John Connolly
- paradoxosalpha recommends Mason & Dixon by Thomas Pynchon, "Similar elements of droll metafiction and period style, historical characters, and tension between two protagonists with professional and personal ties. (see more) Both are beefy volumes that demand real reader investment and pay dividends in rich characters and curious stories."
- billiecat recommends The Ladies of Grace Adieu and Other Stories by Susanna Clarke
- flissp recommends The Man Who Was Thursday by G. K. Chesterton
- billiecat recommends The King of Elfland's Daughter by Lord Dunsany, "Clarke's descriptions of Faerie share the dreamlike qualities of Dunsany's novel."
- fyrefly98 recommends Sorcery and Cecelia: Or the Enchanted Chocolate Pot by Patricia C. Wrede, "Both have the same "Jane-Austen-meets-Harry-Potter" vibe to them; "Jonathan Strange" is denser and more grown-up, while "Sorcery & Cecelia" is funnier (see more) and more of a romp."
- conceptDawg recommends The Dante Club by Matthew Pearl
