Fantasy books

It depends what type of fantasy you are looking to read. I'm a huge fan of sci fi, my favorite authors are Isaac Asimov and Arthur C Clarke. I'd recommend you check thenm out. If you are looking for a place to find cheap books I also recommend you check out http://www.wecomparebooks.com

I haven't read that book series yet but if I get enough time on my hands I will consider it, lol. I don't really read that many books now, the last ones I read were Jurassic Park and The Lost World some months ago. But I definately think you should check out the Runelords if you like that stuff and have the time. Have a nice day :)

I'm not familiar with the books you're reading, but I am familiar with the genre. As for book suggestions, have you read any of the classics like Tolkien? The fantasy genre is so wonderful for taking us away to another realm. It really opens our minds to all the possibilities out there. I love it and am glad to see that people are discovering it anew. I've been worried that the sword and sorcery part of the genre was dying as the urban style was gaining preference, but you renew my hope. A Game of Thrones is being made into a television series if you're interested in looking into it.

I'm a real big fan of fantasy myself. Haven't read any of the books you mentioned, but I have heard of them and they're on my mental to-read list. I tend to narrow down to the high-fantasy sub-genre. That's the ones that take place almost entirely in a made-up world. I like most kinds of fantasy though. I see the classics by Tolkien and C.S. Lewis have already been brought up. A few other classics you might look into are The Last Unicorn by Peter S. Beagle and the Earthsea Cycle by Ursula Le Guin. I LOVE Chronicles of Narnia personally. I'm re-reading them right now. The above poster said you might be put off by them being children's books... and I know loads of people are... but I read adult books and children's books pretty indiscriminately. I think a good book is a good book no matter what age it was written for. Some of my other favorites are the Shannara series by Terry Brooks (It's a mega-series so if you're confused as to where to start like I was... look for 'The Sword of Shannara'), The Magic Kingdom of Landover by Terry Brooks, The Pendragon Cycle by Stephen Lawhead, The Books of Pellinor by Alison Croggon, the Circle Trilogy by Ted Dekker, The Dragon Keeper Chronicles by Donita K. Paul, The Legend of the Guardian-King by Karen Hancock, The Auralia Thread by Jeffery Overstreet, The Icemark Chronicles by Stuart Hill, and the Unicorn Chronicles by Bruce Coville.

Hi henrikm I really like the fantasy genre, though i haven´t had the oportunity to read THAT much as i would like. When we talk about fantasy its inevitable to talk about Tolkien, i really liked his books, specially the silmarillion. I recommend you read it as also The lord of the rings saga and the hobbit. Other genius in the genre is CS Lewis author of The Chronicles of Narnia (you may find it a bit childish, though that doesnt make it less good, they are really amazing). He also wrote the cosmic trilogy which were awesome, specially the second book of the trilogy Perelandra. Im currently reading Dragonlance by Weis & Hickman, first book was ok, i still think it was great book to read (if you have ever played Dungeons and Dragons or an rpg like fire emblem, you would notice a lot of things in common). THat´s all i could say to you as for the books i have read. Other books i have only heard they are good are The Wheel of Time and The Dark Elf. There are many more, the genre is really underrated as thought of being for childs and geeks though if you look further you would find books that are worthwile.
