I heartily endorse The Edge Chronicles. I loved them as a child, and I love them now. Spindlebugs are awesome, Chris Riddel illustrations FTW, and it's got a 'Nature versus Industry' vibe going on, like Oddworld or LoTR.
I've been reading Unseen Academicals too. It's good to see more of the UU. I don't think anyone does wizards like Terry Pratchett.
