Looking forward to Fool's Quest which is due to be released in August. After such a big break the continuation of the series was much better than I even hoped. So I can't wait for the next one.
Chloe wrote: "The winds of winter by George R.R.Martin" I already stoped dreaming, so if it ever gets published it will be a pleasant surprise. Otherwise it´s too depressing.
I'm looking forward to "Fall of Night" by Joseph Nassise (if it ever gets released... supposed to have been released March 31 but it keeps getting delayed), "Marny" by Anthea Sharp (due out July 14) and "The D'Karon Apprentice" by Joseph R. Lallo (due out Nov. 12).
Oh boy, you guys missed a few here, especially in the fantasy field: "The Winds of Winter" [A Song of Ice and fire Book 6] by George R.R. Martin. Hello? Has anybody read "A Dance With Dragons"?! We need more!! Love or hate the show, it'll be interesting to see what happens next.
"The Doors of Stone" (?) [Kingkiller Chronicle Book 3] by Patrick rothfuss. It's the finale in the acclaimed trilogy.
"The Spider's War" [Dagger and Coin book 5] by Daniel Abraham. The finale in his fantasy series. This series is truly underrated, even though it is similar in tone and approach to A Song of Ice and Fire.
Stormlight book 3 by Brandon Sanderson. Another great fantasy series, and author. The first two were awe-inspiring, who knows what he'll do next with his masterpiece saga?
"Fall of Light" by Steven Erikson. It's another Malazon book. Need I say more?
Outlander book 9 by Diana Gabaldon. There's going to be another one, and like always, it'll be great.
"Bloodline" [War of the Roses book 3] by Conn Iggulden. It's the finale in Conn's War of the Roses series.
"The Story of Kullervo" by J.R.R. Tolkien. Only time will tell to see if this release is worth it.
Thanks for posting these. I read a long blog about books that were promoted at BEA, but this is much more helpful!
I'm looking forward to The Mountain Shadow by Gregory David Roberts -- the long awaited sequel to Shantaram supposedly coming out October 13th.

What about The Winds of Winter? -Of course It might never be published but it is still highly anticipated!
Shima wrote: "What about The Winds of Winter? -Of course It might never be published but it is still highly anticipated!"The first paragraph of the post specifically refers to books that are "on their way later in 2015." From what I've been hearing, Winds of Winter won't be out until 2016 at the earliest. Consequently, it wouldn't make the list.
Waiting for the "Armada" invasion of bookshops :), "Ready Player One" was one my best readings in the past few years.

That explains a lot. I was looking at this list and thinking, where are the major fantasy books coming out next year? Even this year though, one of them should be on the list. Mistbourne 5: Shadow's Self by Brandon Sanderson.

The book is causing a bit of a controversy because this does not include what Stieg Larrson had begun writing for his fourth book. It's an original work that has the blessing of the Larrson family and the publishing house, Norstedts Förlag. It does not have the blessing of Stieg's long time partner Eva Gabrielsson who has the manuscript of the unfinished book he was working on when he died.
Hope Lies in Less by Kris Wehrmeister. Brilliant short stories. http://www.amazon.com/Hope-Lies-Less-...
