17 Fantasy Books That Everyone Should Read at Least Once

The Chronicles of Narnia are collectively incredible, but there's a reason The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe remains the most beloved entry in the series. Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy Pevensie escape one world at war through a magical wardrobe only to find themselves in another that tests their strength of character even as it introduces them to the danger and power of true magic. This book may be a children's classic, but it's one you're never too old to read for the first time.
