I highly recommend the Young Wizard series to anyone who likes fantasy. And they're nothing like Harry Potter, except that both involve young people who are called wizards. They also pre-date Harry Potter by a couple of decades.

Start with So You Want To Be A Wizard?.
I just bought So You Want to be a Wizard and I took a look at the code and it's awful. There no CSS file and the mess in each XML file is really bad (that;s being nice). Take a look and you'll see how bad it is. I wanted to change the font, change the margins and change the indent. But this would require a total start from scratch. I'm seriously thinking of asking for my money back it's that bad. It's made from MS Word and edited in Sigil. But whoever did the editing needs to go to school to learn proper CSS/XML. My time is worth more then the work needed to get this fixed.

This does bring up one issue in Sigil. Sigil should complain if there is no CSS.
