Top 5 Wednesday is a GoodReads group where people discuss a different bookish topic each week.
Author duos are increasingly becoming more and more common, especially within the indie author community. For today’s prompt let’s feature titles that are written by two or more authors!
This was a pretty difficult prompt but I managed to find five titles I’ve enjoyed a lot.
1, James S. A. Corey
Two authors write the popular Expanse SF series: Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck. Abraham wrote fantasy before tackling the Expanse and Franck was a screenwriter.
2, Phil Foglio and Kaga Foglio: the Girl Genius comic
This is a fun steampunk/gaslight online comic. It’s available for free online.
3, Wendy Pini and Richard Pini: Elfquest comic
A wonderful fantasy comic that is also available online.
4, Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman: Good Omens
“The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch” is a comedy playing with the apocalypse. It was made into a TV series, as well.
5, Matthew Costello, Neil Richards: Murder on the Thames
They write a cozy mystery series set in the small village of Cherringham.

The first book I thought of was This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone. Not sure I can think of any others though!

Yes, I could think of anyone than Corey at first.
