The Dark is Rising Sequence
by Susan Cooper
You children might have seen the movies and probably have felt disappointed, but as usual a movie seldom comes near a book. Combining Arthurian legends with modern magic, the books tell the stories of four children, joined by a fifth later in the series, and their adventures with old magic in
the modern world, climaxing in the final battle between the Light and the Dark. A story that runs deep with emotion and is not as full of frills as Harry Potter, which will give it a sense of being possible to any child reading it. The sequence consists of four books “Over Sea, Under stone”, “The Dark is Rising”, “Greenwitch”, “The Grey King” and “Silver on the Tree”. which can also be bought in one tome.
