![]() | Lord of Snow and Shadows (The Tears of Artamon) by Sarah Ash
Buy new: £5.99 / Used from: £0.01 A gripping and intriguing plot set in a world largely influenced by the language, customs and history of Russia.
|
![]() | Prisoner of the Iron Tower: Book Two of the Tears of Artamon by Sarah Ash
Buy new: £4.52 / Used from: £1.50 An impressive follow-up to The Lord of Snow and Shadows - though perhaps not as thrilling as the first book, it's a great continuation of the trilogy.
|
![]() | Children of the Serpent Gate (The Tears of Artamon) by Sarah Ash
Buy new: £6.99 / Used from: £1.69 Third and final addition to Sarah Ash's trilogy - very fast-paced and exciting, and thankfully not burdended by the clichéd happy ending.
|
![]() | The Gift (Pellinor) by Alison Croggon
Buy new: £4.76 / Used from: £0.01 Great story set in a world of bards and good vs. dark forces - Croggon has created a convincing world with impressive history, legends, and geography!
|
![]() | The Riddle by Alison Croggon
Buy new: £5.99 / Used from: £1.64 Great follow-up to The Gift - like the first book, I love that the characters travel all round Croggon's created world. The map's there for a reason, as is not always the case!
|
![]() | The Outstretched Shadow (Obsidian Triology - Book 1) by James Mallory
Buy new: £4.95 / Used from: £1.06 Your typical high fantasy trilogy including elves, a dragon, unicorns, centaurs, demons and various otherwordly creatures, yet it still seems to stand apart from your standard fantasy story.
|
![]() | To Light a Candle (Obsidian Trilogy - Book 2) by Mercedes Lackey
Buy new: £7.19 / Used from: £0.56 Great continuation of the Obsidian Trilogy - by this time I had grown used to the rather clichéd evil forces that had initially disappointed me in the first book.
|
![]() | The Curse of the Mistwraith (The Wars of Light & Shadow) by Janny Wurts
Buy new: £5.45 / Used from: £0.01 This is the series i'm currently reading (i'm on book 2 of about 11 so far!), and I love it for its characters and the constantly changing direction of the plot. You can't get bored with this one!
|
![]() | The Ships of Merior (The Wars of Light & Shadow) by Janny Wurts
Buy new: £5.40 / Used from: £0.01 Great sequel to The Curse of the Mistwraith - I was worried about starting such a long series, but have found that it has not once dipped in quality. A fantastic read!
|
![]() | Sabriel by Garth Nix
Buy new: £5.00 / Used from: £0.01 This is one of those books I could continually re-read. Nix's plot has depth and the characters are wonderful, so much so that i've decided to name a cat after Sabriel's sarcastic white cat, Mogget!
|
![]() | Lirael by Garth Nix
Buy new: £5.49 / Used from: £0.01 Lirael is a great sequel to Sabriel, but I was disappointed that the main characters of the first book are not present in this book apart from a quick sighting =(
|
![]() | Abhorsen by Garth Nix
Buy new: £4.97 / Used from: £0.41 Great conclusion, though I'd say it was my least favourite of the three.
|
![]() | The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien
Buy new: £4.37 / Used from: £0.01 If you haven't read the Lord of the Rings yet, I really suggest you read this one first. It's a great introduction to Middle Earth and is just as good, perhaps even better than the Lord of the Rings.
|
![]() | The Lord of The Rings (Based on the 50th Anniversary Single volume edition 2004) by J.R.R. Tolkien
Buy new: £12.47 / Used from: £0.01 There's no way a high fantasy list could not include LotR - it's my favourite work of all time, and apart from an epicly boring chapter called 'Treebeard', i'd say it's perfect.
|
![]() | The Magicians' Guild: Black Magician Trilogy, Book 1 by Trudi Canavan
Buy new: £5.99 / Used from: £0.01 This is one of those mass market series that turned out to be good - be warned though, it's like reading J.K Rowling in that the writing's not great, but the story is thrilling.
|
![]() | The Novice: Black Magician Trilogy, Book 2 by Trudi Canavan
Buy new: £5.99 / Used from: £0.62 Good sequel
|
![]() | The High Lord: The Black Magician Trilogy Book Three by Trudi Canavan
Buy new: £5.99 / Used from: £1.95 In this you'll find a surprising twist in the story, but a great conclusion to the trilogy.

Listmania!
