Top Ten Series I'd Like To Start But Haven't Yet

Top Ten Tuesday Time, as always hosted by The Broke and The Bookish.  It is a great topic this week as it is all about series that I would like to start but haven't just yet.  Funnily enough, I've made a bit of progress through my way through my SILTSBHY list this year, but there are still plenty of others that I haven't got round to starting yet.

1. The James Bond books by Ian Fleming
Bought most of these for my BF.  Waiting for him to read them all so I can steal them.

2. Nadia Stafford by Kelley Armstrong
 Armstong's two books about a hit woman were released before I found her Otherworld Series.  I really want to see what her non-paranormal fiction is like, yet I can never seem to remember to order them from the library.  The third book is out later this year, so maybe it's time I checked them out...

3.  The Dustlands - Moira Young
Blood Red Road caught my eye one lazy afternoon in the Norfolk and Norwich Millennium Library.  From what I gathered The Dustlands series is dystopian and is supposed to have similarities to the Chemical Garden Trilogy by Lauren DeStefano.

4.  The Night Watch - Sergei Lukyanenko
Have you noticed that my book list on the right never changes?  I'm determined to make a dent in that list this year, as I've wanted to read The Night Watch for two years now!  I heard good things about the series from a friend, and I mean Russian Vampires?  Yes please!
 
5. The Collector - Chris F. Holm
Love the cover, premise sounds good, just got to make a start on this Urban Fantasy Noir!
 
6. Codex Alera - Jim Butcher
 I haven't read many books in the epic fantasy genre, but I'm think Butcher's series may be a good way to start.

7. Sherlock Holmes - Arthur Conan Doyle
This is terrible.  I should have read all of these by now.  By the end of the year I am determined to have at least started reading some Sherlock stories.
 
8. Miss Marple - Agatha Christie
I've grown up in a house that adores Agatha Christie mysteries, both in book and T.V form, but I've never attempted to read any.  I'd like to try and attempt making my way through all of them at some point.
 
9.  Darkness Rising - Kelley Armstrong
 I've been waiting for all three books of Armstrong's latest YA series to come out so I could read them in one go.  With The Rising coming out in April, it's go time...
 
10. Alex Versus - Benedict Jacka
 
Jacka's Alex Verus series is marketed as a cross between Rivers of London and The Dresden Files.  This is technically a cheat as I finally started the series last week...but I like to break rules every now and again.

That's my list for this week!  What series are on yours?
