I wrote this a few months ago, when I was thirteen.

Narnia
Pros: Highly enjoyable , written marvelously. No uneeded detail, perhaps not detail enough for some. Great symbolism and anologys, all morals are to be in line. Wonderful storyline, though evil creatures are not described in deatail it is intense enough to keep you interested.

Cons: Though even adults enjoy these books, when you grow older you might want something with more pages and longer words. If so, C.S. Lewis' other fantasy series might be more worth your while. The names of the books are: [i]Out of the Silent Planet[/i] , [i]Perelandra[/i], and [i]That Hideous Strength.[/i]

Content Advisory: Very little. C.S. Lewis purposefully refrains from desribing evil creatures in detail, thus saving the sleep of many small children. But, personally, I was scared out of my wits by the werewolf and the witch in [i]Prince Caspian[/i]. Also describes wounds minimally.

Lord of the Rings

Pros: An adventure that crowns many adventures, it was written by a Catholic author, and a good writer at that. As in Narnia, great symbolism and analogies. Written for older kids, so more teens prefer it to Narnia. Rich detail and mythology make this always engrossing.

Cons: Long and detailed, too long and detailed for some.

Harry Potter:

Pros: Engrossing. So engrossing, in fact, that while reading the first five books I stopped literally only to go to Mass, eat, sleep, and use the bathroom. Has a few good morals.

Cons: Some people beleive that Harry Potter inspires the occult. My personal view on fantasy and the occult is that most authors write fantasy to make children happy and/or to make themselves rich and famous. I don't think it was J.K.'s intention to start a bunch of occult practices(though some believe it is the devil's). It is your decision to decide whether HP is occult or not. I myself never had an urge to cast a spell while reading the books. What my parents were more worrried about was that Harry frequently (in fact almost always) lies and breaks rules, and circumstances reward him for it. You have to be old enough to understand that such stuff is not "okay" before reading these books.

Content Advisory: Lots of creepy creatures and violence described well, but scary.

These three seem to be the fantasies everybody's crazy about. So which do you think is the best?
