[binaryfaerie]

Aside from the classic Lord of the Rings and Chronicles of Narnia...

1. The Realm of the Elderlings series by Robin Hobb (includes 3 trilogies)
2. Sir Apropos of Nothing by Peter David
3. Song of the Lioness quartet by Tamora Pierce
4. The Chronicles of Prydain by Lloyd Alexander
5. His Dark Materials by Phillip Pullman  

[Ex Obscurum ut Incendia]

Never liked LotR... Just cause its the first doesnt make it the best. And 'A Wrinkle in Time' is technically fantasy. Just not so many of the cliche associations.

I don't think it's the best either, but I think it's something every fantasy fan should read. It was the first modern fantasy book and now a big part of pop culture.  

[Pretty Little Muffin]

1. Enchanted Forest Chronicles
2. Dragon's Breath
3. Hatching Magic
4. Catwing
5. Catwing Returns

2. The Naming
3. Howl's Moving Castle
4. The Wind Singer and the sequal The Mastery of the Slaves, and the third Firesong
5. His Dark Materials
6. East
7. The wizard series you know So you want to be a wizard and so on
8. Eragon and it's sequal The Eldest
9. Inkheart and Inkspell

Rose Daughter by Robin McKinley is a Beauty and the Beast re-telling, and a good book. I forget what's different or similar to the tale about it (haven't read it in a looooong time), but I know that I liked it.
