Favorite series

Hello. Today I’m talking about some of my favorite non-David Eddings series.

The first series is called His Dark Materials by Phillip Pullman. His Dark Materials is a very strange, very interesting series. It’s a mix between fantasy and science fiction. It’s a trilogy starring a girl named Lyra who ends up being involved in an enormous conflict between an infinite number of worlds and even Heaven itself. The infinite worlds and growing conflict makes for an exciting trilogy, weaving themes about loss, war, and growing up.

The second series is called The Chronicles of Ancient Darkness by Michelle Paver. This series I started reading when i was 9 or 10 and I actually never finished reading it. It still stands as one of my favorite series so I might finish it. The series takes place in a mostly forested or icy area similar to Alaska and it’s inhabited by a people similar to some Native American cultures. It’s definitely an action series about a boy named Torak and his companion, a wolf named Wolf. Together they have to deal with evil people and ancient darkness, including the demon-possessed bear that killed Torak’s father.

The last series is called The enemy by Charlie Higson. The Enemy is a 7 book series I am currently reading. I’ve read The Enemy, The Dead, The Fear, The Fallen, and I just finished The Sacrifice. It’s an amazing series because it’s about a virus that started to turn everyone in the world older than 16 into zombie-like, brainless cannibals. The series follows separate gangs of kids in London, fighting to survive against an enemy they have only one advantage over, their wit. They quickly discover that other kids, desperate for resources or power in a world with no adults can be just as deadly an enemy as the disease, but the plague is evolving, the adults are getting smarter.

There were 3 of my favorite series. Bye.
