What's your favorite fantasy novel/series?
My favs are: Harry Potter & LOTR
I'm not a big novel reader, but i truly love what of The Witcher novels have an English translation (The Last Wish, Blood Of Elves and Times of Contempt [Once that it gets realeased at some point this year]) I guess that came from how much i enjoy the story when i played the Witcher games.
"The Chronicles of Narnia" and "The Dark Tower".
"Let us enjoy the Rain together. My Umbrella is always open for you. Knowing me is knowing never having to say goodbye. It never stops raining, does it?"
A Song of Ice and Fire
The Last Unicorn I recommend highly
High Bloods and Ravenous. Not recommended for persons under 16.

Harry Potter and Inheritance Cycle.
"The Amber Chronicles."
"Let us enjoy the Rain together. My Umbrella is always open for you. Knowing me is knowing never having to say goodbye. It never stops raining, does it?"
For good character development and interaction I highly recommend Lois McMaster Bujold. Her Vorkosigan Saga is fun - that's SF, and The Curse of Chalion and Paladin of Souls (fantasy) are among the best fantasy I've read.
For other exciting fantasy, try Brandon Sanderson (yea, he's the guy who took over for Robert Jordan and finished The Wheel of Time series.). His Mistborn Trilogy is basically high fantasy meets wire-fu in its execution, and the magic system is pretty awesome. The sequel book, Alloy of Law, is basically fantasy meets the wild west (without the zombies of the Deadlands RPG setting).
Beyond that - George R.R. Martin, Elizabeth Moon, Jennifer Roberson, Kristin Britain, and Brent Weeks are all decent reads, too.
My 2 yen,
Akiosama
many and different novels of the Forgotten Realms, specially those that go around Drizzt's life and other novels will Dark Elves such as Liriel.
I also adore the Warcraft Lore novels <3
Lord of the rings and the Chronicles of Narnia.
I really like the Painted Man series by Peter V Brett
MY ANIME-PLANET WATCH LIST
AF FAMILY
Astral_Mage - Younger Brother/Confetti Brother
horrendous - Older Brother
1nterest1ng - Confetti Brother
At first I thought this said "Final Fantasy Novel". I was about to die from excitement overload lol.
Off the top of my head, I think my favorites would be The Inheritance Cycle from Christopher Paolini, and "The Talisman" from Stephen King. The Dark Tower series is really awesome as well. Then there's "The Hobbit" and the LoTR trilogy... But there's also The Vampire Chronicles from Anne Rice, especially "The Vampire Lestat"...
Let's just say I really like Fantasy. =D
The Temeraire series by Naomi Novik, A Song of Ice and Fire series, Beasts of Burden (comics), and I kind of like Fables.
The Looking Glass Wars by Frank Beddor
Not like high fantasy or anything, but definitely fantasy. Also my favorite book/series ever. x3
She has no shadows, and she radiates beauty.
Slender body, and two eyes like ebony.
Her spirit's golden, and her mind's a mystery.
My favorites are:
1. Percy Jackson & The Olympians
2. LOTR/Hobbit
3. Harry Potter
1) Harry Potter... need I even elaborate... these books are the reigning champion of fantasy!
2) Mercy Thompson series by Patricia Briggs... if you like a good urban fantasy, I would highly recommend this series. It's got a little bit of everything. More so a series for females, but still good nonetheless.
The Wardstone Chrinicles by Joseph Delany
That guy is a genius. http://www.animeforum.com/images/smilies/cool.png
The Dark Tower series by Stephen King. i've read through all seven novels about three times.
Mine are mostly repeats: ASOIAF, Inheritance series (yay for whoever else said this one as well ^^) and The Sword of Truth series.
Chronicles of the Necromancer by Gail Z. Martin were pretty amazing.
On a side note: am I the only one who HATED reading LoTR? They read so much like Dickens that it was pulling teeth to finish that series. However, do not confuse my use of hate for hating LoTR in general. I love the movies :>

I binge read the first four Song of Ice and Fire books in a couple of months. I didn't realize the story wasn't going to end
I recommend Monster by A. Lee Martinez. Easy read, light, funny with wacky villains and heroes.
Also just finished The Mark by Ino Lee. Worth checking out. It has tons of fighting in it with ninjas, demons, Shaolin warriors, sumos, etc.
In no particular order
A Song of Ice and Fire
Dune (dont bother telling me this isnt Fantasy)
Harry Potter
Dark Tower (King's Magnum Opus (what a fitting name for the modern day King of authors))
The Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan. It's absolutely brilliant. Although that's about all the fantasy I've read aside from a little bit of David Eddings (which I didn't really like).
