|
 | Sorcerers of the Nightwing: Book 1: The Ravenscliff Series (Ravenscliff) by Geoffrey Huntington
Buy new: £16.65 / Used from: £2.61 Book 1: This is one of the most nerve rattling books i've read in a long time! Fast paced and the tension never lets up all the way through.
|
 | Demon Witch: Book II: The Ravenscliff Series (Ravenscliff) by Geoffrey Huntington
Buy used from: £1.49 Book 2: Not as good as the first book but still a great read. What is slightly annoying is the unsolved questions from book 1 are still unanswered and the author taking over 3 years to write book 3!
|
 | The Wish List by Eoin Colfer
Buy new: £3.54 / Used from: £0.01 A heart-warming story about a dead burglar! Very funny especially the parts with satan and bub.
|

Buy used from: £6.53 And now for something totally different, In the future the major cities are on traction - and eathing eachother! Incredible fantasy.
|
 | The Book of Lost Things by John Connolly
Buy used from: £0.01 This is the best book i've read for years - a fairytale with a VERY dark and sinister twist! Comes complete with an obese snow white.
|
 | The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
Buy used from: £15.00 Narrated by Death during Hitlers rise to power, the story is about a girl called Liesel (the book theif). A truly amazing story, probably a future classic.
|
 | The Dream Merchant by Isabel Hoving
Buy new: £4.26 / Used from: £0.01 Unputdownable! Great fantasy about a boy who is recruited to travel in 'dream time.' Truly magical book.
|
 | The Divide by Elizabeth Kay
Buy used from: £0.01 Unwell Felix collapses whilst on holiday, he happens to faint on a gateway (the divide) to a back-to-front world where myth & magic is real and humans are the mythical ones! Brilliant.

|
 | The Jinx on the Divide by Elizabeth Kay
Buy new: £11.99 / Used from: £2.86 Book 3. A brilliant conclusion to this fantastic series. If you like Harry Potter i think you'll really like these books.
|
 | The Farseer 1.Assassin's Apprentice (The Farseer Trilogy) by Robin Hobb
Buy new: £5.99 / Used from: £0.01 If you like medieval type fantasy then you'll love this. Fitz, the fool and Burich are amazing characters but i did feel the book dragged on a bit.
|
 | The Farseer II: Royal Assassin (The Farseer Trilogy) by Robin Hobb
Buy new: £4.99 / Used from: £1.20 Book 2. Fitz leaves his childhood behind in spectacular fashion. I've never known a character have so much c**p thrown at them! Again a bit long winded.
|
 | Assassin's Quest (The Farseer Trilogy) by Robin Hobb
Buy new: £4.99 / Used from: £1.40 Book 3. To be honest, i skipped several pages at the beginning. The endless trvelling and the "lets beat Fitz up yet again!" started to get tiresome. VERY long winded .... yet i still liked it.
|
 | The Silver Child by Cliff McNish
Buy new: £1.35 / Used from: £0.01 So original i don't even know how to summarise it! Have a look at the big reviews, it's a terrific and highly original story!
|
 | Silver City (Silver Sequence S.) by Cliff McNish
Buy new: £1.29 / Used from: £0.01 Book 2. To be honest it doesn't feel like a trilogy, it feels like 1 book roughly chopped into 3 to make more money. My only critisism.
|
 | Silver World (Silver Sequence) by Cliff McNish
Buy new: £0.67 / Used from: £0.28 Book 3. The books conclude in spectacular fashion. I've honestly never read anything so original before.
|
 | The Haunting of Alaizabel Cray by Chris Wooding
Buy used from: £0.01 I love stories set in old style foggy atmospheric London. Parts are heavily inspired by Jack The Ripper (or From Hell) but this spooky book is brilliant.
|
 | Physik (Septimus Heap) by Angie Sage
Buy new: £5.00 / Used from: £1.99 Book 3 in the Septimus Heap series. I think book 1 is the best but this one doesn't disappoint!
|
 | The Black Book of Secrets by F.E. Higgins
Buy new: £6.74 / Used from: £1.97 Fabulous grim fantasy! A great mix of fantasy and horror.
