Series: Merlin

Merlin: Part 1 - The Old Magic (1999)
I should admit, my high rating of this series is more to do with the fact that I am a massive fangirl of the miniseries that this is based on, rather than any particular qualities of the books themselves. Not to say that they are bad as stand alone books, but I wouldn't say that they were spectac...
