If you are like me, then you are a huge fantasy fan. It is easily my favorite genre and I have to force myself to read to read other books. But for this list, we will be staying with this genre as we share our list of the 21 must read fantasy books of all time!

And where's Raymond Feist?!

Magician: Apprentice was my first foray into fantasy and the subsequent series made me a huge fan of the whole genre. It’s definitely on my list to reread.

Raymond E. Feist is the only author that made me "understand" why dnd is popular. (I did not have a group growing up to play it with.)

His early works are great--although I am less impressed by his later ones which got very repetitive.

But the collabs with Janny Wurts were wonderful.
