Gibby, there's a manga/comics thread where you can post about comics series you like.

Lessee. Series I love that weren't in my last post in this thread:

"Aubrey/Maturin" (Patrick O'Brian)
"Mrs. 'Arris Goes To..." (Paul Gallico)
"Series of Unfortunate Events" (Lemony Snicket)
"Sherlock Holmes" (Arthur Conan Doyle)
"Anne of Green Gables" (L.M. Montgomery)
"Inspector Grant" (Josephine Tey)

And I'm just starting Neal Stephenson's Baroque Cycle.

Has anyone said "The Dark is Rising" series yet? I was too lazy to read the first 2 pages of the topic... anyway, that's a good series. And Diana Wynne Jones is excellent (although not all her stuff is series...oops.)
