The Belgariad is a five book series written by David Eddings. The world setting is fantasy, but different from traditional fantasy. The books in the series, in the order they were written, are: Pawn of Prophecy, Queen of Sorcery, Magician's Gambit, Castle of Wizardry, and Enchanter's Endgame. The books follow a few years of the life of Garion, a simple farmboy who is destined to save the world. Yes, I know that is the plot of any number of stories, but this one keeps things different and convoluted enough to be more than worth reading. You can probably find the books at various of your local library branches, or if you wish to own them you can try Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble, or Borders.
I have scans of the world map in 640x480, 800x600 and 1024x768.
