Looking for a new series of books to read

[swiggy]

As the title says I'm looking for a new set of books, I mainly enjoy fiction books with some sense of magic in them, but I also enjoyed all the Dan Brown series as well. I've read most of the mainstream ones like Darren Shans, Brent Weeks, and the inheritance cycle. Any recommendations?

David Gibbons? Similar vein to Dan Brown

At the moment i am re-reading the painted man which is an excellent read but i have included links to my favourite fantasy series. All are 3 books or more and have an excellent story and characters.

Gonna try the painted man see what its like, sounds like something I'd usually read cheers

[Mr Slippyfist]

The Painted man is about a medieval type world that has demons (flame,rock,wood,etc) that rise like smoke from the earth as soon as the sun sets. The people have managed to survive thousands of years by warding their houses and barns and fields but this does not always save them as the demons spend all night trying to break through the seals to rip them apart.
The storey follows 3 main characters but i won't say any more as it's a really good read and i don't want to ruin it. If you like it book 2 is called the desert spear and i believe book 3 is out early next year.
Hope you like it i've just finished the first one for the second time and am starting number 2 again.

Ordered both of them at once, there was only £3 difference in the actual price cause they charged extortionate rates of around £6 per delivery for postage but the book was only £3.50.

Delivery can be a pain in the arse, personally I check for the book I'm after on amazon and add the cost of delivery. Then I go to play.com and search for the same book and generally while I've found it to be more for the books themselves with free delivery it can be quite a bit cheaper, I tend to buy a lot of books and I don't mind buying 2nd hand books for a quid or two online because getting 10-15 books a month with free delivery the savings soon add up

I highly recommend the Rift war series by Raymond E Feist, it's extreamly addictive and you cant put the book down its so compelling.
Once you've read one book you'll get all the follow on series.

Might sound a bit geeky but the HALO series of books is a good read

These are pretty easy reading and are on a similar level to a harry potter. I love them and I am on the forth book at the moment.

I can recommend a series by Paul Hoffman. The first is called The Left Hand of God, the second is The Last Four Things, both available from your local library (well for 60p to request it). I think it's a trilogy.
