A cornerstone of modern Science Fiction and a masterwork therein, Dune and it's numerous sequels and prequels amaze at how readable and addictive they are. The original is equal parts political intrigue, revenge, genetic cloning, and, well, so much more. A series that must be read by anyone considering themselves a fan of the genre. - Dragonriders of Pern
For those just discovering this magical place, there are incomparable tales of danger, deceit, and daring, just waiting to be explored.

The central theme tying together these three novels (Valis, The Divine Invasion, and The Transmigration of Timothy Archer) is the search for God and as Philip K. Dick is their author, we know that the ending will be anything but the expected. PKD weaves a tale that crosses Christianity, Judaism, Gnosticism, Kabalah, Zoroastrianism, and Technology in the quest to find (or define) the divine. What if God were exiled to another planet? How would technology help or hinder a second coming? Is technology a product of God, or the other way around? Has this all been a fool's quest? These ended up being PKD's final set of novels, and with them he goes out with a bang. - Lord of the Rings

On the death of their grandfather, a famed stage magician, Tamara and William Swift discover that not all of the old man's magic was performed on a stage. The siblings find themselves the inheritors of an extraordinary legacy, and must bear the burden and the sorcerous power that makes them the mystical guardians of early 19th century England. - The Farseer
The Farseer Trilogy, took place in the Six Duchies. It is the tale of FitzChivalry Farseer, a young royal misfit who, having been deemed more expendable than his half-siblings of true royal blood, is trained as a royal assassin.

11-year-old Lyra Belacqua is living a peaceful life as a resident at Jordan College in Oxford, when she and her dæmon, Pantalaimon, accidentally uncovers a plot to murder her powerful Uncle, Lord Asrial. She foils the assassination attempt and in so doing, begins her quest across dimensions and her own world. Lyra's adventures bring her to an eerie detention camp for kids, the northern most lands where warring polar bears rule, through different dimensions where she and her friends must outwit soul-sucking monsters, to the land of the dead, and to the strong-hold of angels. Pullman's imagination runs wild, and the fantasy world is all the better for it. - Discworld
Terry Pratchett's Discworld series is one that just dares you to attempt to summarize it. In a nutshell, Pratchett has crafted novels where the real world meets the fantasy world and the results are frequently equal parts adventure and dry humor. Not an out-and-out parody of fantasy, the Discworld series is one where "vampires who wish to be accepted in human society join the League of Temperance (you can suck, but you mustn't impale.), witches tend to be good (they'll give you what you need) and fairy godmothers tend to be bad (they'll give you what they think you ought to want)."* Pratchett is the Douglas Adams of Fantasy.
