Dragons
I know there are a couple other dragon lists out there, but a lot of them were missing some of my favourites, so I'm just making my own!
These books the dragons will play a significant role in the plot, even if the focus of the book isn't dragons themselves (like the Hobbit).
For books in a series, I'll only be adding the first one.
Feel free to drop suggestions! I'm trying to include all the dragon books I can.

Incredible Fantasy You've Probably Never Heard Of
Do you feel like you've read everything there is to read? Or get annoyed that the same books are on all the rec lists? Well, here are some more obscure masterpieces!
Some of the covers are terrible - especially among the older or self-pubbed books; there's a few YA in here; and some that are science fantasy rather than 'pure' fantasy. But trust me: they're all EXCELLENT. (And if you already love a bunch of these, let's be friends!)

The dragons are the good guys
Based on my childhood hyper-fixation, in which I would only read books about dragons. And the dragons had to be some degree of intelligent, and the dragons had to be either the protagonists or at least supportive of the protagonists.

History of Modern Western Fantasy
This is a not quite exhaustive list of notable fantasy works from the Tolkien era to pretty much today. In the case of series I have only included the first book. I know there are books I am missing so if you can see any let me know and I will add them. (Not necessarily in order of release date)

Classic Fantasy By Female Authors
A collection of older, lesser-known, fantasy (or science fantasy) books written by incredible women. In a time when female fantasy authors were few and far between, these authors carved out their own space in the genre. These stories might not be mainstream hits today, but they are full of brilliant magic, deep characters, and/or worlds that helped shape the genre. (First in Series / standalones only for now - open to suggestions!)
