Guide to the Best Fantasy Series Ever Written
Fantasy books are becoming very popular these days. This should come as no surprise with the release of Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, The Golden Compass, and other big budget films are created from fantasy books. One of the most popular genres is the epic fantasy genre. There are hundreds (maybe thousands) of epic fantasy books in the bookstore. Read these recommendations for the best!
1. A Song of Ice and Fire by George Martin
This series is highly touted as the best epic fantasy series. It’s a must read for any fantasy or historical fiction reader. The world is brutally disturbing and the cast of characters mostly grey. Martin is the king of unpredictability, so prepare to be surprised and shocked over and over.
2. A Tale of the Malazan Book of the Fallen by Stephen Erikson
A series that matches the epic scale of the Greek classes. There’s nothing quite on the fantasy market like the Malazan books. They are epic fantasy, but wear a different face. An absolutely massive cast of grey characters, and intriguing (and confusing) magic system, and large time frames really give this series some special qualities. Oh yea, there’s some serious action and large battles in every book.
