First Books in Great Series

Here's a list of the first books from different book series of a various genres. Not necessarily the greatest series of all time, or the best selling of all time, just series that I enjoyed. For most of them, I've listed the first book chronologically, rather than publication order. Just because that's the order that I read them in. And yes, I'm classing duologies as series too!
