The Top 5 Best Epic Fantasy Series to Read
Must Read Epic Fantasy Series
Fantasy books are very popular these days. This is probably due to the release of some very high profile fantasy movies the past couple years, including Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter movies, and the Golden Compass. The most recent fantasy movie released (at time of writing) was Inkwell. With the proliferation of these fantasy movies, there is quite a bit of interest in the fantasy genre. More and more people are starting to read fantasy books. Perhaps the most popular fantasy genre is the epic fantasy genre – a genre invented by J.R.R. Tolkien. There is so much crap in the fantasy genre that it’s hard to sift out the rubbish from the jewels. Fortunately, you can read my guide to the Top 5 Best Epic Fantasy Books.
1. A Song of Ice and Fire by George Martin
This is absolutely one of the best fantasy sagas available today. This are immensely popular fantasy novels – and with good reason. The plot of the books is extremely unpredictable and the characters are richly portrayed. The theme of this book is Grey – the characters are completely Grey. With a good mix of action, politics, and (at least at the begging) a subtle hint of the supernatural hinting at a coming danger, these books draw you right into the marvelous world. If you are looking for some of the best fantasy books, you won’t go wrong at all if you pick these books up!
