 | The Sterkarm Handshake (Point) by Susan Price
Buy used from: £0.01 Everything about this book it brilliant - the writing, characters, plot, (even!) meaning...... everything
|
 | A Game of Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire, Book 1) by George R.R. Martin
Buy new: £5.27 / Used from: £2.48 If you like fantasy you must read these books - everything is so believable and real.
|
 | A Feast for Crows (Song of Ice and Fire) by George R.R. Martin
Buy used from: £3.43 God do I want this book. I need this book! I wish the author would hurry up!
|
 | The Druid of Shannara (Heritage of Shannara) by Terry Brooks
Buy new: £7.19 / Used from: £0.01 This was what first got me hooked on fantasy. I still like this book, even though I've decided the others in the series are very shallow and meaningless.
|
 | The Great Book of Amber: The Complete Amber Chronicles, 1-10 (Chronicles of Amber) by Roger Zelazny
Buy new: £12.81 / Used from: £11.38 The tone in this book is amazing - the narrator (Corwin) was completely real to me, and the storyline and ideas were really interesting. However, the second series is not nearly as good.

 | Shylock's Daughter by Mirjam Pressler
Buy used from: £0.01 This book is based on The Merchant of Venice by Shakespeare. Although the Shakespeare was very anti-semitic, this book is much more balance and fairer.
|
 | Witch Child by Celia Rees
Buy used from: £0.01 This book is based on a true story, about witch-hunts in 17th century Britain and America.
|
 | Sorceress by Celia Rees
Buy used from: £0.01 The sequel to Witch Child. This has a lot in it about the Native American way of life, which I found fascinating. It was also really sad, because in a realistic account there is no way for them to win
|
 | His Dark Materials Gift Set: "Northern Lights", "The Subtle Knife", "The Amber Spyglass" by Philip Pullman
Buy used from: £10.00 I thought this was a brilliant book. The third book, the Amber Spyglass though, for which I had waited two years, was somewhat disappointing.
|
 | The Tin Princess (Point) by Philip Pullman
Buy used from: £0.01 This book contains my two favourite characters of all time. It is in fact the last in the series, but all the books stand alone so it is not too important.
