Over Sea, Under Stone…The first book in the award-winning The Dark is Rising sequence, Over Sea, Under Stone is a fantastical adventure set among forces of Light and Dark. The characters in this book, which was published several years before the others, are younger than those in the rest of the series, and the issues are presented as less cosmic.

The Dark Is Rising…The second book in the sequence, The Dark Is Rising features Will Stanton, age 11, who learns on that birthday that he is an “Old One” and thus destined to wield the powers of The Light in the ancient struggle with The Dark.

Greenwitch…The three Drew children unite with Will Stanton on a mission to save the Holy Grail from the powers of the Dark. Combining ancient magic with thrilling adventure, this is the third in Susan Cooper’s the Dark is Rising sequence.

The Grey King…In the beautiful mountains of North Wales, Will Stanton takes on his most dangerous adversary yet: Brenin Lwyd, the Grey King. The fourth in Susan Cooper’s The Dark is Rising sequence and winner of the Newbery Medal, America’s most prestigious prize for children’s literature.
