I am fascinated by great writing that comes from unusual or unexpected origins or genres.
Whether it's a choose your own adventure, a tie-in novel for a game or movie, or comes from a genre that is often associated with a poorer quality, I want to hear about it.
To start I'll offer: Assassinorum: Kingmaker. It'd a Warhammer 40,000 book, and while many books in the universe are really only engaging to those already invested in the setting, a handful stand out as just genuinely good books, and Kingmaker is one of them. I genuinely believe if it wasn't a w40k book it would be more widely considered a genuine sci-fi new age classic.
Please give me your surprisingly good stories!
