Sevenwaters by Juliet Mariller. Kell was raised in Arnes—Red London—and officially serves the Maresh Empire as an ambassador, traveling between the frequent bloody regime changes in White London and the court of George III in the dullest of Londons, the one without any magic left to see.

Welcome to a desert planet where water is more precious than gold, everyone wears moisture-preserving jumpsuits and giant worm creatures can come out of the earth's floor that can kill you at any moment.

This is Dune, a stark wasteland where warring houses scheme against each other in bloody battles that can alter the course of human history. Although it's science-fiction on the surface, Frank Herbert's epic tome features the fantasy tropes of betrayal, redemption and freedom in spades, and is rightly considered one of the most important of the genre.

Herbert's masterpiece not only helped to inspire Star Wars — it still resonates today, tackling environmental concerns, the rise of superpowers and rebellion of people exploited on their own land.

The first of seven books follows gunslinger Roland as he pursues a mysterious, malevolent presence across a strange world that's linked to our own.

From there, it sprawls into a rambling epic that highlight's King's imagination as well as his touch for horror.

Fans of the television series have been distancing themselves from Game of Thrones in droves since that disastrous final season, but George R. Martin's books remain relatively untainted.

A Game of Thrones , the first in the A Song of Ice and Fire Series, sets the tone — with violence and adult themes rarely seen in a lot of mainstream fantasy up to that point.

Each chapter follows an individual character's point of view, and although the series does becomes slightly bogged down in later entries, it is gripping — and the ending is still to come.

Both Pratchett and Gaiman feature in their own right on this list and Good Omens , composed in part over answerphone messages three decades ago, delivers on the promise of a fantasy literature titan team up.

It's the extremely silly story of an angel, Aziraphale, and a demon, Crowley, played with glee by Michael Sheen and David Tennant in this year's Amazon Prime Video series, trying to stop Armageddon.

Most fantasy books ask for a serious commitment but Good Omens is a fully formed, read-in-an-afternoon treat. Set in a lovingly described version of present-day London, the Rivers of London series charts the adventures of Detective Constable Peter Grant, one of two wizards in the Metropolitan Police.

It grounds its fantastical elements in the scientific method, and the mixture of flying spells and police jargon gives the ongoing series a unique and enjoyable tone.

The first book, Rivers of London describes an encounter with a malevolent spirit that draws Grant into the capital's magical underworld.

An epic fourteen novel saga, as well as a prequel novel and two companion books , the author James Oliver Rigney Jr.

Too vast to summarise, the fantasy world — actually a distant version of Earth — is epic and magical, with a gigantic cast of characters.

The series has spawned a video game, a roleplaying game, a soundtrack album and a forthcoming TV series, and the books have sold more than 80 million copies, making it one of the bestselling fantasy series since Lord of the Rings.

It follows the residents of Castle Gormenghast — a giant, gothic castle. In the first book, we meet title character Titus Groan, who stands to inherit the castle and its kingdom.

Unlike much of the fantasy genre gets high praise in literary circles too: Harold Bloom called the series best fantasy novels of the twentieth century.

We follow Lyra Belacqua and Pantalaimon, her daemon — her inner self given animal form — as she investigates rumours of children being separated from their own spiritual companions.

Over the three-book series, this transitions into a battle between humanity and heaven. It functions in part as a retelling and inversion of John Milton's epic Paradise Lost.

The second entry of a three-part sequel trilogy was published in late Philip Pullman has returned with a follow-up to the His Dark Materials trilogy.

The Book of Dust is a second trilogy set in the world of Lyra Belacqua and her inner self in animal form, Pantalaimon. At the point of writing two of the trilogy have been released: La Belle Sauvage and The Secret Commonwealth The first of these is set before the tumultuous events of His Dark Materials.

But the second fast forwards to a decade after their conclusion. There's espionage, spies and frantic attempts to stop the world from vanishing into darkness.

Harry Dresden is a professional wizard in a version of modern-day Chicago where fantastical creatures lurk just underneath the surface.

He makes his living as a private detective, solving cases that bridge the worlds of the real and the uncanny. In Storm Front , the first book in long-running series The Dresden Files, he finds himself duelling with vampires, werewolves, and the mob.

This work, one in a series of books set in the world of Bas-Lag, lies closer to the fantasy genre. As Mieville describes it "it's basically a secondary world fantasy with Victorian-era technology.

The Amazon Prime series failed to spark, but Neil Gaiman's richly described novel is well worth a read. American Gods pits the abandoned folk deities of the old world against the modern idols we worship now.

It follows Shadow Moon, a convict who finds out — days before his release — that his wife has died in a car accident, and falls into the surreal orbit of Mr Wednesday Odin and a looming showdown between the old gods and the new.

Ursula Le Guin is one of the titans of fantasy and sci-fi — her books explore political and feminist themes in fantastical settings.

The Earthsea series is more traditional but still brilliant — we follow Ged, a teenager at magic school, who causes a disaster dabbling in the dark arts.

Avatar Korra fights to keep Republic City safe from Tulpen Englisch evil forces of both the physical and spiritual worlds. Once she was revered by a small Alabama Kino named Pasloe and its people. Vanyalmeida, I do not believe that Sherlock Holmes counts as fantasy. Le Guin. Mary, Queen of 4k Stream Filme, faces political and sexual intrigue in the treacherous world of the French court.

When a young hero forges ahead to face the Demon ruler, he is shocked to discover the ruler is not only a beautiful queen but also a queen that seeks his help.

But it makes for an interesting exploration of different perspectives with a fantasy overtone for the whole thing. An increasingly popular series, Attack on Titan is one that most would consider more a shounen work than a fantasy.

The fact that it is set in a world where beings such as Titans exist, well that earns it a spot on this list.

Titans in this world are monstrous beings who attack humanity in order to consume them. Since then he dedicates his life to their eradication by enlisting into the Survey Corps, an elite military unit meant to combat Titans.

Though this is more action and drama, it does explore the mystery and origins of the Titans and provide solid lore for its fantasy side.

More than taking a modernized take on fantasy which is not often done, the series explores a different take to a fantasy creature. It is not just their hunger for human flesh that makes these beings so frightening.

No, what makes them frightening is their ability to blend in among humans. Following an accident with a date, Kaneki wakes up to find that he has been transformed into part ghoul.

On the surface, this seems more focused on the militaristic action aspect of a story. But the fantasy in this series comes from its amazing lore and deep character backstories.

The series begins with young brothers Edward and Alphonse Elric attempting a forbidden transmutation ritual in order to bring back their dead mother.

This results in Edward losing an arm and a leg while his brother lost his body and now his soul resides in a suit of armor.

By the time they are teens they have become alchemists on a quest to retrieve what they have lost. But can they get it back? Those familiar with the Fate series know that there are a variety of installations to this anime.

Said to be able to grant any wish, it has caused three wars in the past. Sounds like a darn cool artifact. Against him are six other participants.

There are many different isekai stories, but this one is a top pick for the different routes it takes in the storyline.

Rather than a hero requested to battle against a strong opponent, this series presents a high schooler summoned to be the king of a Demon Kingdom.

Set in a mysterious world and future, this is the story of the war between crystalline figures called Gems and the mysterious Lunarians who seek to destroy the Gems for decoration.

Featured here is Phosphophyllite, also known as Phos, a young gem who wishes to join the war effort.

But over time they begin to discover more about not only the Gem people, but also the mystery of the Lunarians. One of the things that anime does well is take a piece from classic tales and bring a whole new twist to it.

While the characters may bear the names of fairy tale characters, the series is a completely different tale. In this world there exists several bizarre labyrinths hiding incredible treasures.

It is said that they were built by rare magicians called Magi and ruled over by supernaturals called Djinn. Just a pure fantasy adventure to enjoy with different colorful characters that borrow ideas from older stories, but bring a unique anime twist with it.

One Piece could be considered more adventure than fantasy, but it still mainly involves fantasy elements. And lots of pirate stuff.

From the different fruits that give magical abilities to the variety of character types, One Piece is an unconventional anime that has proven itself to be incredibly popular.

Mainly because rather than having a usual medieval theme, this takes a different theme with the sea pirates of yesteryear. The main story tells of a young man named Luffy who sets off to gather a crew and seek the One Piece.

Now Luffy wishes to take the mantle of Pirate King, but will he? One night a strange phenomenon occurs and Syaoran discovers the princess with wings that dispersed into many feathers.

Now together with an exiled ninja named Kurogane and mage Fai, they travel various realms to retrieve the feathers and learn more about their reality along the way.

In this world, the Abyss is a mysterious gaping something. It features explorers who venture into the Abyss known as divers. Riko, a diver in training, one day discovers a mysterious robot with the appearance of an ordinary young boy.

As she learns more about him Riko receives a message from her mother a legendary Diver that went missing in the depths of the Abyss. Mystery and adventure, I like it!

Nothing prepares them for what they find. Initially it seems like a standard type of isekai where multiple characters find themselves transported to a game world.

What makes this series so different is in how it shows how different characters adapt to the situation and explore aspects previously unexplored.

This makes for some interesting moments. Now with the help of a guardian creature she has to capture the escaped beings lest they cause massive untold destruction.

Seems pretty wrapped up, but the actual scenery and magical effects are so fantastical. Little Witch Academia is set in a world where anyone can learn to be a witch.

After being inspired by the renowned witch Shiny Chariot years ago, Akko aims towards being a witch like her even without a magical background.

The series is honestly a fun watch with a good mix of comedy, adventure, fantasy, and friendship. SAO is set in the future where virtual reality games have advanced beyond imagination, and many rush to join the newest game Sword Art Online.

If they attempt to escape another way, they face death in the real world. SAO is a series full of fun characters, mystery, and engaging action.

Beginning with the upcoming shutdown of the virtual reality game Yggdrasil. After some exploration it quickly becomes a goal to go through this game until the end.

This is a series that takes a unique look at the hero coming out as the villain and an OP one as that. And this is another series that gamers will adore.

Both Pratchett and Gaiman feature in their own right on this list and Good Omens , composed in part over answerphone messages three decades ago, delivers on the promise of a fantasy literature titan team up.

It's the extremely silly story of an angel, Aziraphale, and a demon, Crowley, played with glee by Michael Sheen and David Tennant in this year's Amazon Prime Video series, trying to stop Armageddon.

Robin Hobbs' epic fantasy series hero follows FitzChivalry Farseer, or Fitz for short, the bastard son of the crown prince.

Raised in a stable and trained as an assassin, the story charts his adventures through the kingdom of The Six Duchies: magic, murder, and political intrigue abound, as well as a zombie curse.

Sound familiar? Definitely a good choice for those suffering from Game of Thrones withdrawal symptoms. A curveball: not fantasy the books cover the French monarchy in the 14th century , but a book for fans of fantasy.

Written in a comedy of manners, Jane Austen style, it took its author British writer Susanna Clarke ten years to write and was widely acclaimed on its release in Although he later revealed the comparison was a joke.

This book focuses on the political tensions between warring states, in a world populated by a host of magical creatures: cannibals, vampires, witches, ghosts and sorcerers.
