For modern-day fantasy stuff, I really enjoy "The Dresden Files" series of books, by Jim Butcher (who's other series made the list above). And this is coming from a guy that doesn't like straight-up Fantasy that much anymore (liked it in High School, but not much since).
Think "gum-shoe detective + wizard ... in a modern-day Chicago where (of course) everyone believes magic is bogus."
It's not for everyone, but I like it... though the last 2 books are more of an acquired taste. I'd recommend starting with the first 2 books and see if you like it.
There was a short-lived TV series on the SciFi channel, but while it kept most of the overall feel of the books there were a lot of differences. |
