Ok, since the winners of the Harry Potter giveaway are most likely quietly ensconced in their reading chairs revisiting the last three adventures of that scar-faced bespectacled boy, it's time for a new giveaway. Now, The Ranger's Apprentice series by John Flanagan may not be as popular as good 'ole Harry, but I assure you, if you are a fan of adventures and quests concerning orphaned young underdogs, you will love Will, who has been apprenticed to the mysterious Ranger.
I have TWO copies of the newest installment in this series, The Siege of Macindaw, to giveaway. Same drill as before, you must comment to have a chance at the books - this time I want you to tell me what your favorite fantasy book (or series) is that ISN'T Harry Potter, Twilight, or The Ranger's Apprentice.
The rules: You MUST be between the ages of 12-18. You MUST be able to pick up your prize at one of the 21 Sno-Isle libraries (or be on the bookmobile route). Find a library near you. Note that you can only enter ONCE! :)
You have until Tuesday, August 11th at 8pm to enter! We'll have a random drawing and announce the winners Tuesday night - so you'll have to check back to see if you win - and then the winners will need to email us at the address we'll provide on the 11th.
Just to whet your appetite, here's a teaser book trailer for the first three books:
And, if you need more proof of this series' cred (I don't know why I'm assuming you haven't read it, I've personally given it to scads of you - and there are currently 72 holds on The Siege of Macindaw) THEY ARE MAKING A MOVIE OF THE FIRST BOOK TO BE RELEASED NEXT YEAR. Just so you know. It's not like I'm all excited or anything... *looks away*

Actually, in Australia, all 8 books are out in paperback... and they're all REALLY GOOD!!! :3 READ THEM!!! (FYI- some of them have different titles than the ones published in the US)
The first time didn't work I think, so here is my answer again. My favorite fantasy series is by Anne McCaffrey that include Dragonsong, Dragonsinger, and Dragondrums.
percy jackson!!!!!
My favorite series is Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan.
My favorite fantasy seiries is Bobby Pendragon by D.J. MacHale. These books are imaginative, thrilling, and leave you drooling for more.

The fact that Australia is ahead of us in this series has been torturing me for YEARS, Anon!
Oh i have to agree with Zac.
The Bobby Pendragon series is INCREDIBLE! My heart races throughout the whole series. Well I still have to read the tenth but I'm dying for that book.
Best Fantasy Series ever!! Go D.J. MacHale!
