RE: [scifinoir2] What are Good Fantasy Books for Black Youth to Read

What age range? Do you have issues with magic, sorcery, demons, etc? Do
the books need to have a moral?  Specifically fantasy here, not hard
scifi?

I'm trying to find fantasy books that black youth could read.  They 
don't have to be by or about African Americans, but I would like to 
find those as well.  Also what about African etc?

A Wrinkle In Time series. I still love that today, and I think it was the first 
fantasy/sci-fi book I ever read. Also, the Earthsea series. 

My nephew is 15, and he reads the junior and the actual Wheel of Time series by 
Robert Jordan

Hope these help.
