Everyone I know has been suggesting Twilight so I am about to start reading it!.

also, I have read the Darren Shan series and I absolutely loved it, maybe you should check it out!. I heard twilight is more about a vampire love story!. Darren Shan is about vampires but it is not a love story and I know many guys who loved it!.

Lemony Snicket is also a good series!.

There was one more that I was going to start reading but I do not remember the name, I will try to get back to you on that one!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

A Song of Ice and Fire Series by George RR Martin!. The first book is A Game of Thrones!.

The Chrestomanci books by Diana Wynne Jones!. The first one is either Charmed Life or The Lives of Christopher Chant (I can't remember which)!.

If you like science fiction as well as fantasy try Dune by Frank Herbert!. It's my favorite book!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Try:
-a Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket
-the Goosebumps series by RL Stine, maybe a little too simple for you now but still entertaining and funny to read!. There are 62 books in the series!! and more in the Goosebumps series 2000Www@QuestionHome@Com

theres a new jk rowling book coming out in december, but if you can't wait that long, try the lord of the rings! they're pretty good!. oh, and aparently the twilight series is good, but i've also heard its like a chick book!. hope i could help you out dude!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If you like Harry Potter you will definitely like Eragon!. Or even the Chronicles of Narnia!. Both series' will keep you on the edge of your seat!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'd recommend the Artemis Fowl series!. I've really enjoyed reading!. They're like Harry Potter but with a bit of an evil twist!. I wouldn't have though you were too old for them so just give them a try and find out!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

i love the amber series written by roger zelazny!. you can get pretty much all of the books in the series at a half price books or on amazon!.com!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The Twilight series are good, but since your a boy I dont know if you would like them, but its a vampire love story!.!.!.hahaWww@QuestionHome@Com

Um, chris-teaa and taytay, the person asking this question is a guy!. I don't think that Stephanie Meyer is a good enough writer to get a guy interested in a vampire romance!. I personally think that she's a bad enough writer to make at least some people who would be interested in a vampire romance not read hers!.

I'm going to give my only sure recommendation for young male readers, which is my sister's favorite series ever: Pendragon: Journal of an Adventure Through Time and Space, by DJ MacHale!. "Adventure" is an important word there, and it also has great humor!. Just don't read it if you don't like cliffhangers!.

Oh, and now that I see someone has recommended it, of the Artemis Fowl series, the first one is excellent and the rest are good, but they might be a little young for you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Hey, I've been reading fantasy books for years and I have some really great books to recommend you!. I wouldn't really recommend the Twilight series to a guy!. The first book is pretty good, but they other two are really slow!. also there is way too much romance in there for my taste!. Actually romance is 80 % of what the book is with nothing more than kissing!. It's kind of a tease!. And eragon isn't bad, but it is pretty bland!. No humor!. Nothing very origional!.

Ok so first I would recommend The Myth Series by Robert Asprin!. The first book is Another Fine Myth!. Such a great series!. There are no boring parts and lots of humor!. You will find yourself laughing out loud!. The plots are also very origional!. It's about a boy name Skeeve and I think he is around your age!. He is an apprentice to a magician!. In the book you can travel to different dimensions!. The other dimensions are whole different worlds!. In one dimension it is always twilight and everyone there has red eyes and they only severve blood at the bars!. Soon the Skeeve realizes that everyone there is a vampire, but too late!.!.!. Just an example!. There are a lot of fun dimensions that he visits!.

Second I would recommend the Incarnation Series and the Xanth series by Peirs Anthony!. He's a great fantasy writer with some really origional books!. You will not be disappointed!. The Xanth series is about a magical land right off of the one of the continents, but there is a magical border they control to keep anything from getting in or out!. Everyone in Xanth is born with one magical talent!. At the beginning of the novel Bink is facing imminent exile from the magical land of Xanth and separation from his fiancee Sabrina for his lack of a magic talent!. At this time all human residents of Xanth possess some unique form of magic that ranges from incredibly powerful (such as the current King Aeolus's ability to summon and control storms) to relatively useless (such as the ability to make a spot appear on a wall)!.

And last the Dragons of Autum Twilight by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman!. That's a really good one too!. A lot of action!.

Well good luck and please let me know if you read any of those books :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

TWILIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.!.!. ITS THE BEST BOOK EVER!!!!! OMG! YOU HAVE TO READ IT AND SEE THE MOVIE COMING OUT ON DECEMBER 12!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
