Best Wizards In Literature

The Top Ten
1 Harry Potter (Harry Potter) Harry James Potter is the title character of J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter series. The majority of the books' plot covers seven years in the life of the orphan Potter, who, on his eleventh birthday, learns he is a wizard.
2 Gandalf (The Lord of the Rings) Gandalf the Grey, later known as Gandalf the White, is a fictional character and one of the protagonists in J. R. R. Tolkien's novels The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. He was an Istar, sent by the West in the Third Age to combat the threat of Sauron, as well as leader of the Fellowship of the Ring and the army of the West. He is portrayed by Ian McKellen in the live action movies.

Only Merlin can compete. Gandalf wins through his origin, character, wisdom, and the mythology he inhabits

' awesome and no arguing about it. No one is more epic than the white wzard himself!

I think he is greater than Harry Potter...

Why he is not the first?

First name that would pop in my head if you asked me about wizards.

The Contenders
11 Albus Dumbledore (Harry Potter) Professor Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore is a fictional character in J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter series.
