A couple of weeks ago, Jo Ann Vicarel and Greg Fisher put together a list of books to introduce novice readers to the cross-genres or slip-stream novels.
This is a continuation of the list.
Cross-genre novels have become so popular that even with this additional list, there are a lot that have been left out. But between our first list and this one, you should have plenty of choices to begin exploring.
Please try one or two and let us know what you think in the comments section below this list.
Below are cross-genre books and all of them are available through the libraries of the CLEVNET Consortium — many are owned by the Cleveland Hts-University Hts. Public Library System. Click on the title to order the book through the CLEVNET webcatalog.
