I need some reccommendations for fantasy series and or stand alones please help
Laini Taylor Daughter of Smoke and Bone trilogy. Brandon Sandersons (really anything written by him and there is loads that inter connect). Robin Hobb Realm of the Elderlings. And so many many more!! ?
i’ll second Sanderson even though i’m not a HUGE fan but you NEED to read Robin Hobb, start with the Farseer Trilogy!!!
The Wizard of Earthsea. Ursula Le Guin. Brilliant novel.
Good shout
DragonLance or The Chronicles of Ancient Darkness are both great series!!
Riyria Revelations and then Chronicles by Michael Sullivan
Memory, Sorrow and Thorn by Tad Williams
Standalone: War of the Flowers by Williams
Because y’all I’m reading the game of thrones series it’s taking longer then I want it too and thank God I have a Kindle lol
Ravenloft is dark fantasy but fun. I actually PMed one of the authors once and they responded.
Oh awesome I love when that happens @Mimi I love books they are my addiction I love going to book signings and stuff but I am so busy now it sucks
Read Arbanhalle Book 1 Betrayal for free on Inkitt.https://www.inkitt.com/stories/fantasy/186830?utm_source=shared_ios
The Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan
Terry Prachett hands down
The Death Gate Cycle (Weis & Hickman).
The Demon Cycle (Peter V. Brett)
Hmmm… maybe I just have a thing for cycles. 🙂
Also, the Mistborn books by Brandon Sanderson. 🙂
anthony horowitz power of five series first book is ravens gate best fantasy series in my view x
The Redemption of Althalus David Eddings or any of his others
This! And I second the Riyria Revelations
There are so many different sub genres of Fantasy that it’s hard to know what you like, but here are some I enjoyed:
The Dragon Kings books by Kimberly Loth
The Dusk Gate Chronicles by Breeana Puttroff
The Taking Series by Melissa West
The Deadlock Trilogy by PT Hylton
And you might like my book Finding the Light by Kelsey Atkins ? (only book 1 has been released so far).
And The Gifting Series by K.E Ganshert (kind of dystopian but so good)
The kingkiller chronicles by Patrick Rothfuss excellent series.
Great books. But there’s a really boring hump to get over in the very beginning. Also, they are starting to become like Game of Thrones where it just takes forever for the next book in the series to come out. 😛
Agreed been waiting for ages now for day 3 of kvothes tale then it’s on to the tales of the characters in the book I want to learn more about tempi for sure.
Apparently, the title is Doors of Stone. No release date, yet… at least none that I can find.
Chronicle of the Unhewn Throne
Blood Song
Kingkiller Chronicle
The Farseer Trilogy
Mistborn Era 1
The Demon Cycle (even though i think it’s one book too long and the unnecessary sex scenes get old quick in the last book)
Red Rising
Wheel of Time
First Law Trilogy
The Night Angel Trilogy
The Belgariad
As far as standalones go i loved Warbreaker by Brandon Sanderson, Girl with all the Gifts, Kings of the Wyld, American Gods, Lost Gods, Neverwhere
Who Fears Death, Library at Mount Char, Good Omens, Elantris,
Ryan Anthony please do, it’s fantastic!!
Good list. I agree about Demon Cycle. You should try The Cycle Of Arawn, fun characters and cool to see the magic system developing
@Seth i’ve never heard of that one but it sounds great i’ll definitely be checking it out thank you
Ryan Anthony that definitely sounds like something i’d like, i just added it to my shelf thank you!
You also didn’t list any of the Mark Lawrence books. Check out his trilogies
Brian McClellan’s Powdermage books are great, and Michael J Sullivan is entertaining as well
@Seth i actually just started on prince of thorns yesterday to pass the time until this book i was waiting for was delivered it’s funny you mention that one. i liked it so far so i’m gonna continue with it once i finish the trilogy i’m on right now
@Seth i have them but i’ve never actually read them, i was torn between theft of swords or age of myth to start with michael sullivan
It’s a pretty good trilogy. I liked his next trilogy a lot, it’s less dark and quite funny.
Ryan Anthony Wow i don’t do a lot of audiobooks so i never knew that, but that’s amazing! i’m glad he does such a good job on such a wonderful series. i hate hearing about people getting turned off from great books because of a poor narrator.

Raymond E Feist’s insanely long series starting with the Riftwar Saga and ending with the Demon War Saga. Great books my all time favorites. Was very sad that they ended a couple years ago. Also, Lynn Flewellings Nightrunner series if you are not squeemish about the main character being gay. Was a shock to find out part way through the book. Short scenes that can be skipped over and not annoying references to a bond word.
Dresden Files
I love butcher’s other series (Calderon)?
@Jimmy I haven’t read that one but thanks I’ll try it!?
The Amazon Legacy. First book just came out a couple months ago and it’s a little intense.
Kingkiller chronicles, demon cycle series, ravens song series, magicians series (books, Not the show)
Urban fantasy- Patricia Briggs, Mercy Thompson series
Magic, heros and horses that are extra special-Mercedes Lackey Arrows of the Queen and the Last Herald mage series, then lots more. Jim Butcher, Harry Dresden Wizard for hire series.
Everless by Sara holland
The throne of glass series by Sarah j maas
Region of shadows by Sophie Jordan
Goddess summoning series by P.C. Cast
One my my friends recommended Throne of Glass as well, said it’s really good. Also… I’m biased, but Regal: God of War is captivating and unique ? aiming to get book 2 out this summer lol
Patricia Briggs Mercy Thompson series
Terry Brooks Magic Kingdom for sale
David Eddings Sorry my mind went blank look him up. Lol
Sabriel by Garth Nix
Also uprooted by Naomi Novik is a good stand alone sabriel is a trilogy
