I think Sergej Lukjanenko's "Day Watch" and other books are fantasy after all, I guess. Although they are about current times

haha choas thanks... well if you get a chance try L.E. Modesitt Jr. if you like hairy potter you will probly like him... hes not your typical crazy fanstay writer he has an intersting magic system that could be considered very complex yet simple. and the best part is theres 11 books i think in the series. Its called the magic of recluce for the first book. The sereis is called the saga of recluce. you can find his website by searching google under the word recluce.

Anyway if talking about HP, it hasn't got any clear magic "system" or laws, Sergej Lukjanenko's "Day Watch" has.

Terry Goodkind is a good writer but you'll have the feeling that you've read his books somewhere else. Not too origional but he writes well.
