If you enjoy the supernatural and are looking for another series to get into, I would recommend The Mortal Instrument series by Cassandra Clare. The first four books have been released in a series that was originally a trilogy but is now rumoured to be six books in length (always good to know that there's more to come!). The books are set mostly in New York City, which is a place I find it easy to imagine fantastical things happening. Also, in the City of Glass a large portion takes place in the land of Idris which is the homeland of the Shadowhunters, the main supernatural race of the series. And if you are looking for even more excitement there is a prequel series calls The Infernal Devices, the first book of which is called Clockwork Angel.
In case you didn't already know I love to read books, and since I've been reading so many lately I thought I'd share my thoughts on them with you :) Alas I have had to leave employment at Chapters to concentrate on school but never fear for many a books will still be read!

Earthsea Trilogy

Recently Studio Ghibli, through Disney, re-released the animated feature film Tales From Earthsea on DVD. Watching it I thought I would very much like to re-read Ursula Le Guin's Earthsea trilogy which, luckily my dad had stashed in our basement. There have been a few more books written based in the world of Earthsea by Ursula Le Guin including Tehanu, Tales from Earthsea (a collection of short stories), and The Other Wind. I've never read any of those ones but I'm sure they will be as enjoyable as the original trilogy that I love so much and have read many times.
