@@TheAdrinachrome1 Sanderson did say he thought they would be filming the Mistborn movie this year and is delaying Stormlight 5 because of his involvement with production.

@@Kmbri That could be good, I was thinking stormlight archive when I made the comment. One book from that series is almost the size of the entire first mistborn series after all, and there's gonna be 10! I would watch anything based off of sanderson's work. Though I would go super tolkien fan on the makers if they messed it up.
Every time I see one of these type of videos I’m hoping I’ll see David Eddings Pawn of Prophecy Belgariad series or Raymond e Feist’s Magician Riftwar Books. Maybe one day !
The Mistborn Trilogy by Brandon Sanderson would also have been wonderful. Such a thrilling read. PS: Love that I can also get book recommendations in the comment sections.
I want to see an adaptation of David Eddings “Belgariad” series of books. Another series I’d love to see is Anne McCaffrey’s “Dragon Riders of Pern” books
If it’s done right… I was severely disappointed in the series based on The Sword of Truth… and The Wheel of Time series was also poorly adapted. Considering the low quality writing in a lot of recent shows, I don’t think now is a good time for either.
I would enjoy an adaptation of either series but I don’t think I’d like it to be done at present. The Rings of Power and The Wheel of Time were both huge disappointments.
I just hope that all of these series respect the source material. Hopefully people learn SOMETHING from the Witcher debacle. Why put people in charge who hate the series?
The Magician, by Raymond E. Feist and The Diamond Throne by David Eddings are both crying out for TV/movie adaptations. These are both the first book of their respective trilogies, so plenty of scope for sequels too.
Yes, a lot of people say the Belgaraid series but I think you're right with the Elenium series. The Elenium is much better. I'd love to Sparhawk come to life.
I second this and The Magician in particular. I would also love to see Raymod E. Feist and Janny Wurts follow up Empire trilogy. I've actually read them every year for the last 15 to 20 years and have often thought they'd make a great series
Are there only female writers left?? Is George R.R. Martin the last good fantasy author?? I am soooo tiered of all this Woke content.. I am all about equality but this woke female and diverse content is just dominating the entertainment market and I am honestly sick and tired of it....
well I think the female authors write a bit more mainstream stories? Malazan book of the fallen by Steven Erikson is the best fantasy ever written in my humble opinion but I cant see it be adopted to the screen, would be to difficult...
Rate this book Honestly I would love to see the Vorkosigan Saga from Lois McMaster Bujold come to a series, however that is Sci-fi so I will have to give my legit answer to the Penric and Desdemona series by Bujold. Bar-none Bujold is my absolute favorite author and to see anything she has done come to life and done right would just be utterly amazing.
Of course The Power will be produced by Amazon Prime. So you know they will ramp up the "I am whamman hear me rawr!" And, make all the men bumbling clowns. Thus wasting even more money.
ACOTAR isn't happening. Hate to break the SJM fandom's hearts. Hulu already failed with ToG back in 2016, and the rights reverted back. ToG also would've been 100x easier to adapt considering it all takes place in a castle. Hulu hasn't the funding for the CGO required for all the ACOTAR world designs. Furthermore, a movie studio also already tried with ACOTAR and failed, rights reverting back to her again around 2016. Now, ACOTAR isn't still under the Outlander director; that information is outdated. He has already said he's no longer on board with it, and confirmed as recently as 6 months ago in an AMA that it still has not been greenlit in now 2.5 years of purchasing. Anyone who knows anything about television knows that 99% of the time, if a show is not greenlit within 2 years, it isn't happening. The fact that ToG and ACOTAR got the exact same style 1 IG post, then silence, it's pretty clear; ACOTAR isn't happening, and they're simply waiting for rights to revert. SJM didn't say anything about the ToG show after it fell through, and she won't with ACOTAR either. She's very open about her crippling anxiety and how social media and her disgustingly toxic fandom are the biggest reasons why. So...
I recently finished the Lightbringer series by Brent Weeks and thoroughly enjoyed it. It has a different and interesting take on magic in that universe. There are also 5 books so they could potentially make a long series about it.
I'm glad that Percy Jackson series is being made... Rick Riordan's books are some of my fav books in the fantasy/fiction genre since I absolutely adore mythology especially Greek mythology, but I have to say I'm kinda disappointed that Annabel is completely changed since in the books she's described as caucasian, blonde with grey eyes, and I'm saying this not because I have a problem with the girl they cast but simply because she's being portrayed by a completely different person than the one I always imagined for so many years of reading the books...I understand that they're trying to be inclusive and diverse with the character casting I'm kinda upset with this but I'll reserve judgement after I watch it to see the direction they're going with...
Wow that list sucks. It's 95% YA fantasy with a teen girl target audience. Percy Jackson fella and Neil Gaiman.. The poppywar from what I've heard is just YA with a lot of cursing and pretty generic. Over hyped
Pretty bad list. Poppy Wars is a rip off of Kingkiller Chronicles, almost plot for plot the same, admittedly I could only get through the first book, but it wasn't great.
I'm definitely intrigued in the ones not based on European fantasy. Grew up on such, love such, but Fantasy productions based on other cultures produced on an international platform has too long of gaps between them, while European-centric fantasy has like 800 movies/shows/video games a year. I want to space how much of that I consume while expanding my time with more exceptions.
Cow had one 2022 it died quickly it was about a young black rich genious looking for his missing dad, no one watches black anything unless drugs or death is involved its sad
I'd like to see Jack Campbell's "The Lost Fleet" series of books given screen time. Also - and I've been saying this in the 80's - Dragon Lance. Both are pretty much pre-made episodic entertainment and would need very little tweeking for the small screen. I get WHY Anne Rice stuff is being made, but those books were written a very, very long time ago and don't really hit as hard as they would have say 20 years back. Too much sex, not enough story. A decent Shadowrun effort would be good too....
The woman behind 'The Power' is giving "Women never cause serious damage to men/women/kids in reality, but fiction will show it, but in a revenge towards men style" vibes. I hope I'm doing a misread of vibes.
You are. She's clearly interested in exploring the idea of "what would society look like on that premise". Not a particularly mind-blowing premise. And it has a boring answer.
My honorable mentions that I would LOVE to see an adaptation of, are the following hit-the-ground-running fantasy action series, featuring witty, strong-minded main and supporting characters. Not in any particular order: John Conroe's "Demon Accords" series Steve McHugh's "The Hellequin Chronicles" Larry Correia's "Monster Hunter International" Elle Casey's "War of the Fae" Sherrilyn Kenyon's "Dark Hunter" & "Chronicles of Nick" series Maria V. Snyder's "Soulfinders" Kevin Hearne's "The Iron Druid" Robert J Crane's "The Girl in the Box"
I've never heard of any of these, other than Percy Jackson, and I only know of that series because of the movies. A reminder: Just because a book series does well, doesn't mean that it will translate into a successful TV show or movie franchise.
I couldn't finish The Poppy War but I am excited for the adaptation! I loved the concept and the characters were great; I just struggled with how dense it was and the fact I was halfway through the book and yet none of the main action had yet occurred. I think an adaptation will make this easier to look past. I do however think the world is a better place without A Court of Thorns and Roses adaptation, but I do look forward to the reaction videos we'll inevitably get roasting it. I didn't like Ninth House really but I do think that was most a Me problem than something with the book itself. Hopefully people will enjoy the show! Who Fears Death sounds AWESOME and I should probably go and read that. everyone's excited for percy jackson so that's not news. yay nonetheless. I also didn't like Circe; as a book it was slow and had no narrative arc but that can work fine as episodic TV, I don't think it'll fix the issue I had with the book constantly shoving her into random unrelated myths where she barely played a role. It could work as a sort of Magic School Bus "let's tour our way through mythology by following the same character!" thing if the tone were very different but it was serious and literary so it didn't work. I have been meaning to read Black Sun for ages, now I need to hurry up with that! The Atlas Six would probably make decent TV. I'm undecided on my feelings about it at the moment since I am still waiting on my library for the sequel; it felt very much like a part one of two, so reviewing it as a complete book feels unfair to it when I don't have context for the larger story. Anyway here's hoping the second book ties things together really well!
If it has to be Fantasy, earthsea cycle would be interesting to see adapted but might be challenging as the protagonists in the series change. But would be fun to see adapted in a longer form than the 2004 adaptation. Dandelion dynasty would be epic to see but I imagine it would be expensive to shoot. If we're not limited to Fantacy there are a few sci-fi entries I'd like to watch. I'd love to see the final trilogy of the expanse on a tv screen. And I can't wait for the three body problem series to drop on netflix
I, personally, would love to see a TV series based on Emily Rodda's childrens'/middle-grade fantasy series, Rowan of Rin, Deltora Quest (all three series), the Three Doors and Star of Deltora. We got a DQ anime but it let me down on so many levels, and there's been no effort to adapt the second and third Deltora Quest series, let alone any of the stories set elsewhere and when in that universe. His Dark Materials got a second and better adaptation, and Percy Jackson is getting one, and I would dearly love to see all these series brought to life with British or Australian casts.
This is more of a science fiction based question, but I wonder of someone could adapt the "Star of the Guardian" book series by Margaret Weis to screen of some sort?
Looks like I made the right decision to stop watching (Hollywood) movies and series and starting to read, because the books Hollywood does decide to put to film are for the most part as bland and creatively bankrupt as everything else Hollywood is putting out last few years.Full with token characters and woke politics. With a few exceptions here and there. Currently watching a Chinese series based off the book "The Three Body Problem" (fantastic book as well) what a fresh experience.
Red Queen: I love it when a book is trying to do social commentary by giving people with different genetics literal superpowers. Kinda undermines the whole premise.
Merely having the power to "do more physical harm" and to "cause more pain" isn't nowhere nearly enough. One also must have honed the will to use that power in this very context of harm and pain. And compared to men, women won't be able to muster that kind of will even if they have all the power.
There are quire a few i would love to see, however I also don't as if they can't stay true to the books, and invent plots that they don't need, then no thank you.
Lois McMaster Bujold (The Sharing Knife; The Penric/Chalion Universe; Also Science Fiction) John Crowley (Little, Big; The Deep; Aegypt) Sebastien de Castell (Spellsinger; The Greatcoats) Holly Black (The Folk of the Air) Helen Slavin (The Witch Ways) Elizabeth Moon (The Deed of Paksenarrion) Mary Gentle (ASH) Christopher Nuttall (Schooled in Magic) Aprilynne Pike (Wings) Naomi Novik (A Deadly Education; Temeraire) Charles de Lint ; Robin Hobb; ...
@@jaydiarae The best fantasies don't always make the best films or tv, for instance, Schooled in Magic of those I've listed, while not the best series would, in my opinion, make a great tv series and possibly film series. Bujold is easy to read, but no fairies, etc., and her Vorkosigan science fiction series is great. Holly Black does have fairies and I love it. Aprilynne Pike's fairies are different: Really good. We can never know if our book recommendations will be liked and my favourites rarely get a mention in book lists, but if you do read one and don't like it don't let that put you off the others, they are all different. For Alternative History Guy Gavriel Kay is a master.
A court of throns and roses: All myths involving the first worl, mention a time difference, a week in the land of the Fae is a year on Earth, sort of thing. So if the story follows the myths, then, yes there will be time travel, of sorts
I love these books. Don't know if a series would work. There is so much back and forth and switching of alliances ( which I know, that is what mercs do).
Honestly speaking, I was actually very excited for the new adaptation of Percy Jackson & The Olympians, but after seeing Annabeth's cast, I was very disappointed. Don't get me wrong, I'm not being racist here, it's just I grew up reading PJO series and I just fell in love with Annabeth's character, and her whole image is totally different from the cast, at least in my mind. In my opinion, there are enough of PoC characters which can be involved in future instalments of Uncle Rick's Universe. Consequently, it was unnecessary to cast Annabeth as a person of colour.
Idk who those 3 kids were with Rick Riordan but I hope they are not the mains of the Percy Jackson show. If they are, then the boy in the back is fine as Percy, and the supposed Grover would be fine with some touch-up, but the supposed Annabeth is the wrong race. Hopefully not tho

@@jaydiarae The best fantasies don't always make the best films or tv, for instance, Schooled in Magic of those I've listed, while not the best series would, in my opinion, make a great tv series and possibly film series.
Bujold is easy to read, but no fairies, etc., and her Vorkosigan science fiction series is great. Holly Black does have fairies and I love it. Aprilynne Pike's fairies are different: Really good.
We can never know if our book recommendations will be liked and my favourites rarely get a mention in book lists, but if you do read one and don't like it don't let that put you off the others, they are all different.
For Alternative History Guy Gavriel Kay is a master.
Who is that in the thumbnail?
Firestar (Warrior Cats) Well you did ask.
I want SuperPowereds by Drew Hayes
or not, as usual.
A court of throns and roses: All myths involving the first worl, mention a time difference, a week in the land of the Fae is a year on Earth, sort of thing. So if the story follows the myths, then, yes there will be time travel, of sorts
We need the Black Company brought to the screen by fans of the books.
I love these books. Don't know if a series would work. There is so much back and forth and switching of alliances ( which I know, that is what mercs do).
Malazan Book of the Fallen!
Why get excited when none of these shows gonna be faithful to their adaptation 🤦🏽
I find it interesting most of these are from women authors. Poppy war is fire btw
Good Omens is not based on a Gaiman novel. Terry Pratchett.
Omg my group chats are going off.....I'm gonna faint!
Boo...We want Throne of Glass
I have a fantasy about the thumbnail...😋
Wth 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Who is that?
I am still waiting for Stephen R. Donaldson's Lord Foul's Bane trilogy (1977) to be made into a series.... Hope it will happen before I die! LOL
I’d rather see the Gap Cycle
Honestly speaking, I was actually very excited for the new adaptation of Percy Jackson & The Olympians, but after seeing Annabeth's cast, I was very disappointed.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not being racist here, it's just I grew up reading PJO series and I just fell in love with Annabeth's character, and her whole image is totally different from the cast, at least in my mind.
In my opinion, there are enough of PoC characters which can be involved in future instalments of Uncle Rick's Universe. Consequently, it was unnecessary to cast Annabeth as a person of colour.
Idk who those 3 kids were with Rick Riordan but I hope they are not the mains of the Percy Jackson show. If they are, then the boy in the back is fine as Percy, and the supposed Grover would be fine with some touch-up, but the supposed Annabeth is the wrong race. Hopefully not tho
Especially when you take in magnus chase books who is anabeths cousin
I hope all these authors are getting their books adapted because they are great books and not because they are just not male.
Did you watch the video? Not all of them were female. Don't be that person.
What?
Oh boy here we go
You know the answer to that...gynocentrism at its finest. In other words? They will all fail because they will all suck
I got an idea. Why don’t you try read one? Poppy war might be one of the best fantasy books I’ve ever read.
LoL isn't Sarah J Maas that TikTok writer
Bit woke
