Weird fantasy has to leave me with a “That was great, but what the hell did I just read?” feeling. The books below all fit the bill.
Sometimes, at the end of a long day (or even a short one), I want to be thrown into the middle of a bunch of exploding weirdness and not have to think too hard. Or, if a book is going to make me think when I’m tired, it had better be sneaky about it, and do it while I’m having a lot of fun.
