What book series would you like to see made into a movie trilogy or a show with multiple seasons? (lemm.ee)

I've often wanted a movie/series based on the Dragonlance books or the Dark Elf trilogy. What would you all like to see done if you had the ability to do it?

Le Guin prose is exceptional and would be nearly impossible to bring to screen well. I'm sure it will be tried at some point. Maybe a dark horse, but I actually think The Lathe of Heaven might be the most adaptable. It's the simplest story and has plenty of room for exciting changes and visuals in a film.

And... the 1980 adaption of Lathe of Heaven is fantastic. (There's also a remake I refuse to acknowledge.)
