Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Children Of The Lamp 02 Blue Djinn Of Babylon

Never have I ever read such a ridiculously detailed and amazing book in my life. This exciting journey about a boy and girl with extraordinary powers called Djinn, embark on a global quest for a powerful book that has been stolen. The journey these characters go through made it hard to put down the book because of the great obstacles and challenges that led to end. But the thing that made this book become a great book was the fact that there was a dozen journeys with in the journey its self. This made the book much more fun and movie like to read. The Children of the lamp is a five star book that is definitely my favorite fantasy I have ever read.

Interstellar Pig 01
by

When I first read the title of this book, I wanted to put it back down. But as soon as I started reading it, I couldn't drop it. Interstellar Pig is a far fetched science fiction book about a young boy who decides to play a so called game, and soon realises its much more then just a game. This out of the ordinary book was hard to put down because of its amazing detail and craft put into the story. The emotions of the main character I felt were somewhat unusually curious and specific about things which made it hard to relate to him. Despite this, it did not affect the amazing obstacles and events the characters went through to get where they did. Overall I really enjoyed this book and would rate it a good 4 stars.

Chronicles of Prydain 01 Book Of Three
by

The minute I picked this book up I knew it was more then just an ordinary book, it turned out to be a breathtaking thrill ride that never seemed to end. When Taran ventures into the woods chasing after the magical pig Hen Wen, he has no idea what he is getting into, and ends up learning the hard way. The Book of Three is an exciting, and some what ordinary fantasy of a young boy who wonders into something completely unknown to him. This book had amazing characters that I could relate to, because they are brave, whole hearted, and always seem to finish wht they start. I really enjoyed the events and obstacles the characters when through because they happened at realistic periods in the book and made the hole plot flow smoothly. Overall this is a four star book for me, and I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series.
