Over Sea, Under Stone is part of the Dark is Rising series.
Melusine - Other friends like it. I couldn't really get into it.
Mairelon the Magician is a fun light read. I actually like most of her writing, so long as you're not looking for deep sweeping adult epic fantasy.
Lucifer Vol. 1 - that's the graphic novel right? I like Mike Carey's books okay. He writes interesting urban fantasy/horror with the Felix Castor novels.
Dragons of Autumn Twilight - first book in the main dragonlance trilogy. Classic fantasy..hell metal bands sing about the characters, even if they don't do it as often as they sing about Lord of the Rings and such.
I read the blue sword...when I was in middleschool so I do not remember it. That doesn't necessarily mean it's a childs book though I read a lot of not-childrens books when I was a child. I don't remember anything at all about it except that there is a sequel to it.
Sorry, there are a lot of these I know the authors but I've never read that particular book. Though I might point out you have the D&D forgotten realms playing kit in there and an artbook for anime which can't really get a recommendation either way I suppose. (I'm not a forgotten realms fan. Drizzt is a pain in the ass super special snowflake and salvatore doesn't even try to hide that. ...And everyone loves it when there are so many other D&D settings that are more fun.)
