The Acacia series by David Anthony Durham is labeled both as Sci-Fi and Fantasy, but it is definitely more Fantasy. The series consists of two books with books contained in each of them. Having completed the first "book" (Acacia: The War with the Mein: The King's Idyll), I am still getting some of the names mixed up, but that passes quickly. The storyline is interesting, but it does seem suspicious that there is a king named Leodan and that one of the characters discovers a secret passageway while hiding in a wardrobe.
The most difficult thing I'm faced with is knowing which side to favor. There aren't exactly good guys and bad guys. They're all good and bad in their own way, but I guess that's closer to reality.
