While I was tempted to use Feist’s second book, Silverthorn, I ended up going with Talon of the Silver Hawk.

Feist, and I actually found a couple of good options here. I had to include at least one book from one of my favourite authors, Raymond E. Red Metal by Mark Greaney and Hunter Ripley Rawlings IV

I absolutely loved Red Seas Under Red Skies, which is the second book in Lynch’s iconic Gentleman Bastards fantasy series, especially as, in some ways, it is a better novel than the incredible first entry in the series, The Lies of Locke Lamora. There was no way that I could create a list about books with colours in their title without featuring this incredible book. This book has a couple of different cover designs, but I decided to go with the one above, as not only is it really striking but it features so much of the titular colour in it. This was a fantastic and epic read which serves as the third book in Ruocchio’s amazing Sun Eater series of science fiction novels. The first book that I am featuring in this list is the Demon in White, which I only just finished reading today. However, I have really enjoyed the two Gray Man novels that I have read ( Mission Critical and One Minute Out), so I thought I would include it as an honourable mention. This is another one that is technically ineligible for this list, as it is the series name which has the colour in it rather than the individual book titles. Because of this technicality, I decided to include it as an honourable mention, rather than on the main list, but there was no way I could not mention this amazing first entry in Pratchett’s iconic Discworld series. When I first heard about this week’s topic this was the book that I initially thought of, even though technically it does not have a true colour in the title. I managed to eventually cull this down to my absolute favourites, as well as including a few special honourable mentions. This list is filled with a great range of different books which includes a combination of recent novels I have read and reviewed, as well as some old favourites. This worked out well, and I was able to come up with a final list that I am rather happy with. While I had a few titles in the top of my mind when I first saw what this topic was, I had to dive through the bibliographies of some of my favourite authors and through my blog archives to see what I could find. This proved to be a particularly interesting topic to do, and I was rather curious to see just how many of the books that I have read had a colour in the title. For this week’s Top Ten Tuesday, participants need to list their top ten favourite books that feature a colour in their title. Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme that currently resides at The Artsy Reader Girl and features bloggers sharing lists on various book topics.
