Sunlit Lands Trilogy

A modern adventure in a fantasy land. Reads great, follows many diverse characters, deals directly with heavy problems spanning relationship building through coping with fatal conditions through fantasy racism... relatively complex and at times dark and mature, but also full of humor. Places a lot of weight on the value of stories to people at broad, which is a philosophy that I subscribe to (stories build our reality! stories allow us to deal with reality!). Overall a great read and well worth the time.
