The "Greene" insert was hilarious! 😂 Great recommendations! I love the description of The Dreaming Tree, especially with it being Celtic inspired. Sounds like a backlisted gem! 💎
The thing that I appreciate most about this channel is the consistent presence of recommendations that I've never heard of. I love Sanderson but I already love him so recommendation lists that are half his books and half other popular booktube series that we've already seen on 10 other lists are not super helpful. Keep pointing out these awesome old under discussed books! Edit: Even the Sanderson recommendations are deeper cuts than usual, lol
It's not out of print. Try abebooks and world of books. I get all mine there and cheap. Got duncton books 1 year or so ago. All of them for about 3squid each
@@CarlieMcConnachie Good to hear it's back! The last I saw it was going on Unbound, and hadn't been available as new since about 2017ish except as an ebook.
It really is! Actually had it on this list before swapping it out for Fifth Season, but yeah Deltora has lots of nature. I re-read them recently too and plan on making a full video on the series soon, freakin love those books
@@CapturedInWords That's awesome! I really look forward to that, because you don't see many videos about DQ. I did a video on DQ (on my writing channel) a little while ago, but privated it so I can re-upload it to this new (reading focused) channel, along with a bunch of other vids haha. Hopefully we can both tap into everyone's nostalgia
MEMORY, SORROW, & THORN is one of the most amazing series ever! It's in my top 5 series of all time and the arc of Simon is one of the best that I've ever read.
I just started the Lord of the Rings books because you're so right spring is the perfect season for these!! I always read the books and watch the films in spring!!
I'm reading these books with my nephews! The youngest is 7 (he reads at a level far above his age) and the elder nephew is 15. We finished The Hobbit and are up to the Council of Elrond in FotR. The 7 year old hasn't complained once about the depth of this story -- just as my mother loved Tolkien the first time she picked the books up in the 70's - I and my brother grew up with Middle-earth, and now we are continuing the tradition with the next generation. ❤ I'm chronically ill and Middle-earth has always been a panacea for those bad days or terrible episodes where neurological troubles are out of control. When I'm too tired, almost feeling defeated... all my caregiver needs to do is ask, "Do you need to go to Middle-earth?" ❤
I'm currently in home isolation as I tested positive for Covid-19. In this difficult time, your video brought me a lot of happiness and joy. Thank you very much! And I really enjoyed reading the Books of Earthsea. My favourites were Tehanu and Tombs of Atuan. Love from India!
I read the Nausicaa manga the summer before I went to college, well over a decade ago. It affected me so deeply that the story has never really left me.
Thank you for making this I love nature and descriptive writing! I just looked up books set in nature and found your video, I will be checking these out :)
That Daniel eddit 😂 loved this intro! Your editing is spot on. I love this video! I love the way N. K. Jemesin involved nature and climate into her world and magic system, nothing like what I've ever seen before! I just finished The Obelisk Gate and can't wait to read the final book. I recently watched Nausicaä for the first time and it's such a good movie, I'll definitely add the manga to my tbr :)
I would throw in the Gentleman Bastards as well because those are very descriptively well. I’m reading book 3 right now and it’s so awesome! And no worry about the ads, jay ;)
Oh my gosh I love your fantasy recommendations videos and this is right up my alley! I love nature, I love trees! Nature-fantasy needs to be its own genre! You should check out Riyria Revelations, the magic system’s sort of nature themed. Also, The Irone Fey by Julie Kagawa
Glad to see Seasonal recommendation coming back on the channel. I think Name of The Wind would fit here too. (Oh God! I just finished the book yesterday and I am already looking for a way so that it can be in each and every video. I loved the book Jay. Thanks for recommending it). I would check out The Fifth Season, the plot intrigued me. Excited for the next Bookstore Adventure.
Tad Williams! I'm rereading To Green Angel Tower right now, and getting ready for the new series! And I need to get my hands on the Nausicaa manga again! It's indeed WAY better than the movie.
My personal recommendation would be Fine, not only us a masterpiece science fiction novel but the descriptions of the planet's environment and and nature are incredible
Honestly my favorite thing about your videos is how you just channel the great awkward-nerd-chaotic energy that is my whole experience of the world. 😂 Please keep being weird forever.
Nice job on this video. Also, it's funny that you would bring up the Wheel of Time, because I am currently reading the kindle version while listening to the professional narration of the 9th book, Winter's Heart. I am also reading while listening to the Twelve Kings of Sharakhai by Bradley B. Beaulieu. My last book and audio book that I am working on is called Just one Drop, the Grey Wolves book 3, by Quinn Loftis. The only series on your list that I have read is the Lord of the Rings. I do have all of the Earthsea series, the Fifth Season series and the Tad Williams books on my TBR pile.
Great video. The Dreaming Tree sounds great. That one is definitely going high on the TBR. WOT expert Daniel Greene recommends reading New Spring after book 5, Fires of Heaven.
I might put the Fifth Season on my to-read list. Thanks for the suggestions! When I finished A Song of Ice and Fire books, I wanted to read something else by George R.R. Martin and ended up with Windhaven in my hands. I loved it! It's not much about spring, but the characters do depend on the weather to fly over islands. It's beautiful!
Some books I haven't heard of before! I put Duncton Wood and the Dreaming Tree on my list! 😄 I'd recommend the Sevenwaters trilogy by Juliet Marillier, or any other book by her to be honest. Her magic system is always very connected to nature, and her main characters are often healers connected to the old faith. It definitely fits to read her books in Spring and I love them!
I recommend you read Sherri Tepper's The Companions. The book is very focused on the natural world, on Earth and the planet Moss. If I'm remembering correctly, there is even a scene with a nature-based worship service with hymns she wrote.
I was thinking the same thing. But it is SF, not Fantasy, don't forget. And any resemblance between it and the Avatar movie is completely unintentional. 😐
@@thelasthandbook6704 you're right! That escaped me. I do believe it's very similar but it's forest setting I think is enough to set it apart a little.
Well I am reading The Rain Wild Chronicles by Robin Hobb which is maybe the most nature focused fantasy series I have ever read.....Unfortunately it just isn't as good as the other Hobb books, so thats a flaw
Not quite Fantasy, but flirts with it, is Where the Forest Meets the Stars by Glendy Vanderah, it felt very spring time :) in a I'm going to count birds for science kind of way.
Nation by Terry Pratchett comes to mind. The story takes place on a chain of isolated tropical islands during the colonial era. It follows a child growing up on these islands and the culture he lives in.
Lots of great recommendations on here, some I’ve never heard of and am eager to check out! A nature book that popped to mind is Uprooted by Naomi Novik.
I think of The Magician's Nephew by CS Lewis, Moymoy Lulumboy Ang Batang Aswang (particularly the world of the gods) by Segundo Matias Jr. when it comes to books depicted in green pastures. 🌳🌱 Thanks for sharing these. The Fifth Season makes me interested to read it. 📖
This is YA, but I would read Strange The Dreamer in spring, is has floral-y descriptions, and the skin of one of the protagonists is always described as the blue colour of a "spring, not summer sky"
I have several books in mind. When i try to explain how good duncton woods is to people you can see their eyes glaze over. It's one of the best set of books I have read. I have read them all. Should make a block buster epic, as long as they stay true to the book... Love Boswell, wee comfrey Disagree that it's too long. 100s of hours of being immersed in this world. Instead of meh, it's done. Learning all the different systems. The marshenders, those that follow the word because they believe Vs scared into it. The different classes in systems ect. And brownie points for water ship down. Another great book. TV series and movie made me sad about how much was changed. I would recommend Henry Williamson who writes novels about wildlife. He is all about concern of wildlife. He wrote tarka the otter in 1927 and salar the salmon. I also have to throw in animals of farthing wood
The Soldier Son trilogy is DEFINITELY nature-focused. Would you compare Duncton Wood more with Redwall or Watership Down? Those are two VERY different takes on nature. Redwall was good for the first half dozen books or so. Watership Down was terrible and I have no desire to read anything that resembles it.
Never read Tolkien and I do have the Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings on audio so I might get to those in the coming months. I have never watched the movies either lol.
I've read those Waking Land books, and my big complaint is that each book follows a different character, and then kind of ignores the mc from the previous book. The ending also felt a little lackluster. The first book is still good, and I wish the trilogy had just followed her.
You want us to read Duncton Wood as a spring read, but the cover is covered in fallen Autumn leaves. |:{ I dunno, nature is always happening and as a theme it can sort of apply to any season - although though Earth day is in spring, so I can sort of see it if it's got heavy conservation themes, like Nausicaa - but I'm more interested in reading stories that actually reflect what's happening outside, like most of your winter recommendations showcase a lot of snowy landscapes (and I've already marked the Dragonbone Chair as a winter story based on your last winter video, and I just- I just- I just can't have it in both. no). If there's themes of fertility though, that reflects spring well (along with maturity/Summer, old age/Autumn, and death/Winter), so I'm down for Watership Down in springtime.
Hmmm well I honestly haven't read a lot of books that have Spring as the main season or theme in the book, which is why I decided to just go with books with a lot of nature for this one. There's lots of books that primarily take place during Winter or have an Autumn feel, but not a lot with Spring
@@CapturedInWords Yeah, I've been having some trouble with that also TBH, I think of things like Wind in the Willows, but that just starts in the spring and then runs the seasonal gamut. I've written down some other recommendations, but I've yet to verify them. The best ones I could think of were the Neverending Story (because it's all about rebirth) and The Magician's Nephew (because everything's literally springing out of Narnia)
English is my second language, so excuse my confusion, but isn't archipelago pronounced with a k sound? Anyway, thanks for the chuckle:)) Really enjoyed the video, and I would add Circe by Madeline Miller, Uprooted by Naomi Novik and The bear and the nightingale by Katherine Arden.
That was my first thought too, but as someone for whom english also is a 'forin' language, I am 100% sure 🤔 I really need to pick up one of Maleline Millets books. Circi has been on my shelves for ages now 😶
@@annakhjelm146 Circe is the only one of her books I've read and, while I enjoyed it well enough, I won't pick up another of her books anytime soon. It's beautifully written, but kind of too flowery and boring - for my taste at least! I hope you enjoy it or at least don't fall asleep reading it 😂
@@girlwithflowers8058 I have heard that it is kinda slow, but I am hoping that I love mytology will help me out 😂 but I need to finish the Malazan series first
Oh you know what, I think you're probably right! Ahaha i don't really use that word often so I just guessed at how I thought it was said. Thanks for the recommendations!
Let me know what fantasy books you'd recommend that have a heavy focus on nature!
Not a nature book, but I would love a farseer why you should read
Queens of Renthia by Sarah Beth Durst,has a forest setting.I also know a survivor story that I enjoyed:Be Not Far from Me from Mindy Mcginnis.
@@ragnarock2992 Now, you are speaking my language
I would love to see suggestions too. All I've read is LotR and Kingkiller. No idea where to go next.
dragons of spring dawning from the dragonlance chronicles sir
The opening gave me the vitamin D I needed for the day ☀️
Haha I'm glad!
The "Greene" insert was hilarious! 😂 Great recommendations! I love the description of The Dreaming Tree, especially with it being Celtic inspired. Sounds like a backlisted gem! 💎

I love the recommendations. Its nice to listen to someone on RUclips who has read more than WoT, LOTR & Sanderson (Daniel Greene)
Interesting picks! I've always thought CJ Cherryh has been vastly under-rated. My recommendation would be Charles de Lint's recent Wilding series.
You recommend the exact kind of fantasy books I love to read, thank you!!
Great video, Jay! Iove your channel, hugs from Brazil.
Excellent. I’m now on tad Williams second olsten series.
Great vid! I currently have the same box set of Nausicaa in my manga backlog and am really looking forward to it

Also check out Mythago Wood. It's an amazing classic fantasy set almost entirely in a dark mysterious forest in England.
Oooo I've heard of that one, will definitely add it to my list
This video was pretty neat.
How neat is that?
Awesome. Keep growing❣
I've been meaning to read Tad Williams but his books are a rare find (locally). I guess I'll have to buy it online. Thank you for the recommendations.
The Word For World is Forest by Ursula K. Le Guin focuses a lot on the - you guessed it - forest.

I guess I am gonna SPRING to it watching the video pardon the pun! Now I feel like I should go out to nature but indoors is so much safer.
Not quite Fantasy, but flirts with it, is Where the Forest Meets the Stars
by Glendy Vanderah, it felt very spring time :) in a I'm going to count birds for science kind of way.
Ha, had to stop because i was laughing hard with the goblin humor.
If you like the island archipelago of earth sea another book that has this type of world setting is The Bone Shard Daughter ✨
Nation by Terry Pratchett comes to mind. The story takes place on a chain of isolated tropical islands during the colonial era. It follows a child growing up on these islands and the culture he lives in.
People don't give Sixth of the Dusk enough rep. Thanks Jay :)

Omw the Daniel Greene cameo
everything's Greene, so everything's keen.
Thank you for book list!! Like always watching ur channel!! 📖🎬😊📽 what are u currently reading????
I think of The Magician's Nephew by CS Lewis, Moymoy Lulumboy Ang Batang Aswang (particularly the world of the gods) by Segundo Matias Jr. when it comes to books depicted in green pastures. 🌳🌱
Thanks for sharing these. The Fifth Season makes me interested to read it. 📖
The iron Druid chronicles by Kevin Hearne is a really good series with a large focus on nature!
This is YA, but I would read Strange The Dreamer in spring, is has floral-y descriptions, and the skin of one of the protagonists is always described as the blue colour of a "spring, not summer sky"
You sneaked in four more recommendations, I can see through your ploys.
T.A. Barron's follow up series to the lost years of Merlin series. The Great Tree of Avalon trilogy.
I can’t wait to read Tad Williams’ trilogy. 😁
I have several books in mind. When i try to explain how good duncton woods is to people you can see their eyes glaze over. It's one of the best set of books I have read. I have read them all. Should make a block buster epic, as long as they stay true to the book... Love Boswell, wee comfrey Disagree that it's too long. 100s of hours of being immersed in this world. Instead of meh, it's done. Learning all the different systems. The marshenders, those that follow the word because they believe Vs scared into it. The different classes in systems ect. And brownie points for water ship down. Another great book. TV series and movie made me sad about how much was changed.
I would recommend Henry Williamson who writes novels about wildlife. He is all about concern of wildlife. He wrote tarka the otter in 1927 and salar the salmon. I also have to throw in animals of farthing wood
The Soldier Son trilogy is DEFINITELY nature-focused.
Would you compare Duncton Wood more with Redwall or Watership Down? Those are two VERY different takes on nature. Redwall was good for the first half dozen books or so. Watership Down was terrible and I have no desire to read anything that resembles it.
The whole broken earth trilogy is SOO GOOD
"Spring brings happiness back to my soul"

Never read Tolkien and I do have the Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings on audio so I might get to those in the coming months. I have never watched the movies either lol.
Please tell me the edition of the fellowship paperback at the beginning!
Well, I do love me some Celtic lore. Maybe Stephen R. Lawhead's Song of Albion could be a nice addition, too?
Ahh good rec! I read the first book years ago, I think it's time for a re-read soon
I've read those Waking Land books, and my big complaint is that each book follows a different character, and then kind of ignores the mc from the previous book. The ending also felt a little lackluster.
The first book is still good, and I wish the trilogy had just followed her.
Oh really?? That's too bad! I hate when books let established characters just fade into the background later in the series
“Everything’s Greene”... I see what you did there 🧐
Do you plan to read malazan anytime soon
Memory, Thorn, and Sorrow is technically a trilogy, but it's really four books lol.
The Reign of Cryptic has ended.
