Alright, all you fantasy readers of /lit/, I want to read a fantasy book (or series) that involves magic as a major point. The main character could be a mage/wizard/sorcerer/what have you, or it could just be something prevalent in the story.
A great example of this would be Raymond Feist, particularly the Magician: Apprentice/Master books.
Anybody got anything?

Hmmm Have you read the Wheel of Time. The first book has magic it not to much, but as the characters learn more about the world the magic become much more prevalent. (A good 6 pod characters are magic users)

I've read the first one, but I like to kind of space out my series-reading.
As in, I like to wait a random period of time between two books in a series.

I'll check that out.

Anybody got anything else?

Game of Thrones

The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant has a world imbued with magical power, the powers that be that struggle to learn more to counter an undefeatable force, and a main character who possesses "wild magic" that he cannot control.

I've read all five that are out already, and anyways, that doesn't have magic as a major plot point.
There's a few bits here and there, but not as much as I'm looking for.

That looks pretty neat, I'll definitely check it out.
Same goes for this one >>2641064
