My Favorite Fantasy Fiction Books from 2017

Here are the fantasy fiction books (or series of books) I most enjoyed reading aloud to my children, or else reading quietly to myself (mostly while riding my exercise bike), in the Year of Our Lord 2017. Obviously, many if not most of these books were published prior to 2017. A few of them are books that I have read before, but I had the joy of rediscovering them with my children this year.
