There are some really great kids books I've read to my daughter that I think would work well in a visual medium.

In particular the work of Alastair Chisholm (Orion Lost, The Consequence Girl and Adam 2) would work well I think.

Also Jamie Littler's Frostheart series would be great.

I'd also like to see an adaptation of How To Train Your Dragon that's much closer to the books than the movie series of the same name. The books are so good but so different from those films, and their story and characters would make a great TV show IMO.

Abhorsen series by Garth Nix.

The Riftwar Cycle from Feist. Each series is a season. And even side-series, like The Empire trilogy.

There actually was a 2008 animated Dragonlance movie with a good voice cast. But I hear it was terrible and I haven't forced myself to watch it.

The Amtrak Wars.

Red Rising

The Very Hungry Caterpillar (starring Dwayne The Rock Johnson as the caterpillar)

Early Mormon church history is about as bizzarre and dramatic as it gets. I think a well-produced & historically accurate dramaticization of the weird beginnings of the Mormon church would make for a good miniseries.

he GONE series by Michael Grant. Ive wished for a series based on the books since I first touched them.

Laurell Hamilton's Anita Blake series Kim Harrison's Hollows series Eric Flint's Ring of Fire Piers Anthony Xanth

Nothing. I don't trust them to not try and make their own "vision" and fuck it up.

Three Body Problem/ Liu Cixin's Dark Forest goodness

The Red Rising series is worth it.

Bolo. They'd have to do it in the *Love, Death, and Robots" format, since they're all short stories and no recurring characters, but it'd be great like that.

Earthbound/Mother 3 live action and serialised (or pretty much anything nintendo—zelda type got thing would be cool)

Any of the William Gibson trilogies. Even though The Peripheral didn't work out.

Ender's Game.

Hate the author, love the series. I've never been more angry with a movie, and a TV series with someone that's actually read the books BUT has also largely disassociated from OSC would go a long way towards repairing things.

None.

I don't see what making a film or TV series adds to any book, all they ever seem to do is a disservice to the original story in the attempt to squeeze as much money from it as possible.

I'd rather more fully voice acted audiobooks were made staying more true to the original texts but adding that extra element to draw you in than just one narrator trying to differentiate characters with different voices.

I'd like to see the more of the Discworld series as done by The Mob (the folks who have done the other adaptations). The Mob has actually been really respectful of the source material and have avoided any temptation to turn the books into the type of dreck which so often oozes out of Hollywood adaptations. Specifically, I would love to see Small Gods, though that means Pyramids first. And continuing the Rincewind series would be high on my list.

Its not a series, just a standalone book but I would love to see a stop motion movie of the magnum opus. It's a book that was written by the makers of a stop motion short called the maker. I would love to see what they could do with a proper budget

I'd love the Wayfarer's series to be a collection of short TV shows. They could do like 6 hour long episodes per book. It would great

• Lord Valentine’s Castle, et al, by Robert Silverberg
• The Silicon Mage series by Barbara Hambly
• The Time of the Dark series by Barbara Hambly
• The Cliff Hardy series by Peter Corris

Jhereg series by Steven Brust

This happened for me with wheel of Time. Be careful what you wish for.

I would watch a well made series based on the Parker novels by Richard Stark.
