can anyone recommend any good trilogies?

[fifitrixibell]

book group reading over the summer is to be a trilogy of our own choice, so I'm looking for ideas! Thanks!

I loved The Hunger Games trilogy - but maybe you're looking for something a little more grown up.

Wideacre trilogy by Phillipa Gregory?

50 shades?

The girl with dragon tattoo steig larsson
The blackhouse trilogy Peter may

I know it a quartet but The Alexandria Quartet lawrence durrell
is wonderful

Ooh Olivia mannings Balkan trilogy

Another quartet is The Cazalet Chronicles. I loved them.

Viva that one was mentioned - not sure any one will be brave enought to admit to reading it!

Thanks to everyone else for the other suggestions - I'll look at them.

Amanda Hockings - Torn trilogy - very good !

Game of Thrones (except there are 5 books so far!)

Lord of the Rings!

His Dark Materials.

Here's some suggestions

and here's some more

Louis de Bernieres' Latin American Trilogy?

Thanks sherlocked - loads to think about there!

Guy Gavriel Kay's Summer Tree trilogy.

I am reading the Promises To Keep series by Shayne Parkinson at the mo and although they are not the sort of thing I would normally chose I am really enjoying them.

There a 4 books in the series and I am on the 3rd one.

Sentence of Marriage

Mud and Gold

Settling the Account

A Second Chance

thanks!

Neal Stephenson's Baroque Trilogy. Wonderful.

White Cat/Red Glove/Black Heart.

Sort of Harry Potter meets The Godfather. Very funny, too.

Pat barker - Regeneration trilogy - brilliant.

His Dark Materials. Best trilogy ever. Has the superficial appearance of a childrens book but definite layers :)

The Deptford Trilogy by Robertson Davies:1. Fifth Business 2. The Manticore

1. The World of Wonders

I second Pat Barker's Regeneration trilogy: 1. Regeneration 2. The Eye in the Door 3. The Ghost Road

I envy anyone reading these for the first time. I return to them again and again.

Antonia White - Frost in May. This is the first novel in a quartet.

Thanks for all the suggestions - I'm having fun looking at them all but still haven't decided.

I've read the Regeneration trilogy - I really liked the first one but wasn't so keen on the other two.

Gormenghast. Very wordy, but wonderful.

First three Song Of Ice And Fire books are an amazing trilogy.

So pleased to see people saying dark materials, I know they are more aimed at youngsters but I read them when I was 25 and they're my absolute favourite books. I would pick them to read again over anything. The film was a monumental disappointment though.

Anytime any one wants a recommendation for book group I suggest this

Melvyn Bragg which just happens to the the first of a trilogy. My book group has been meeting for almost nine years and it is generally accepted to be one of the best books we have read.

As far as I know, no one has ever taken my suggesstion
