11 Best Fantasy YA Series
For magic-loving teens and pre-teens who are ready to be swept up into another world
There’s nothing quite like fantasy.
Contemporary, mystery, thriller, drama — they’re all amazing in their own, unique ways, but there’s just something about magic and adventure that has an almost bewitching appeal, especially to older kids.
Here’s a comprehensive list of the eleven best fantasy YA series, ranked from youngest to oldest, so you(or a loved one) can devour one sequel after another.
Unwanteds
Unwanteds, a series of seven, follows two twins, Alex and Aaron, fighting on opposite sides of a war — a battle between two societies: one bound to rules and dull obedience, and another, blooming with creativity and magic.
The series is quite good, and while may be slightly cliche to some older readers, is an enjoyable read full of adventure and magic. I would recommend the series to readers 9–12.
Land of Stories
This series of six is so good you’ll be falling through the pages — literally. Watch as fairy tales come to life before your eyes as twins Alex(another twin named Alex, except this time she’s a girl!) and Conner discover a magical world of classic fairy tales.
