The Dark is Rising Sequence by Susan Cooper

4.0

These were probably one of the earliest fantasy series I remember reading. I began with book two then devoured the rest. My daughter is keen on fantasy so when I went looking for a book to read together I settled on the first one in the Dark is Rising series hoping she would enjoy them just as much. We haven't yet got fully into the reading, she's a little hard to convince but I couldn't help myself and went on ahead reading the other four books and devoured them just as eagerly as before.

A classic fight between the light and dark, flitting between times and drawing on the celtic legends, these are wonderful books which should be better known.
