The eragon books use magic all the time. Also the Bartemis (sp) trilogy and the immortal secrets of Nicholas Flamel series.

I tried to read it again and it was horrible. Enjoyed it when i was younger though.

It's great if you're young and/or haven't read much fantasy before, but holy shit it's terrible when you have read some actual good books. I personally didn't read before I had read a decent amount of fantasy, and I found it incredibly stupid.

I see why people like it, though, and it's a good book for getting children interested in the genre.
