Oh wait lemme add.

Transformation by Carol Berg (but the sequels can be skipped). A nice thing about that book is that it's more Middle-Eastern based fantasy than European, which is already a nice cultural change.

The Artemis Fowl series by Eoin Colfer - it's YA, and features a world with extremely technological fairies who are at odds with humanity, starring a genius bratty human kid. The first books especially are great fun.

[othellia]

Ooh, Artemis Fowl! I completely forgot about them! Definitely seconding them.

Also, other than the annoying retcon in the first chapter, the sixth book just as amazing as the first couple.

[ketita]

The later books aren't bad, but I personally found myself a bit frustrated by the lack of... continuity? Emotional development? I don't even know how to define it, really, but I felt like the concept was a bit stagnant. And it's a shame, because I adored the hell out of them, and thought the series had the potential to be really stellar.

[othellia]

Yeah, he seemed to be set on keeping Holly and Artemis on permanent will they/won't they mode, Opal as the even number book villain, etc.

I actually rather liked Minerva (unlike the rest of fandom, it seems), so I was bummed that she essentially got put on a bus for the remainder of the series.

[ketita]

I actually liked Minerva too. There were several characters that never showed up again that I was disappointed about.
You're making me want to reread XD I never actually finished the series, because of the mixed reviews; I didn't want to disappoint myself, and I was a bit underwhelmed by The Time Paradox. Is it worth reading the last two?

I found The Atlantis Complex very disappointing, but REALLY enjoyed The Last Guardian.
