I think Tamora Pierce's books are more for the girls, I dunno if any of the guys here would like them. Each book is around a strong female character. They all have magic, immortals, knights and castles. That kinda stuff and there just wonderful! If you've read them before you know what I mean when I say that you just can't beat this writer!

If you're interested in reading them here is my most favorite series that I think anyone here would enjoy:

THE IMMORTALS SERIES
1.Wild Magic
2.Wolf-Speaker
3.Emperor Mage(I don't think Emperor is spelt right)
4.The Realm of the Gods

If you want the names of any others just pm me. ^_^
