Question: Doe anyone know of any good books!?
I have just finished reading the Twilight series and I was wondering if there were any good books that I should read!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Hey, it is great that you enjoyed the Twilight series!. Other than them, I will definately recommend you to read the Inkworld trilogy by Cornelia Funke!. The trilogy consists of three beautifull written fantasy novels, about the adventures of teenager Meggie Folchart whose life changes dramatically when she realizes that she and her father, a bookbinder named Mo, have the unusual ability to bring characters from books into the real world when reading aloud!.

Another amazing fantasy series are The Edge Chronicles by Paul Stewart and Chris Riddell!. The books are quite popular and are published both in the UK and USA!. There are four "sections" and a total of eleven books in the saga:

1) The Quint Saga
The Curse of the Gloamglozer
The Winter Knights
Clash of the Sky Galleons

2) The Twig Saga
Beyond the Deepwoods
Stormchaser
Midnight Over Sanctaphrax

3) The Rook Saga
The Last of the Sky Pirates
Vox
Freeglader

4) Standalone Books
The Lost Barkscrolls (2007)

Another fantasy series that I will recommend you is the Midnighters Trilogy by Scott Westerfeld!. It is comprised of three books; The Secret Hour, Touching Darkness and Blue Noon

Here's a decent summary of the books:

15-year-old Jessica Day moves with her family to Bixby, Oklahoma after her mother gets a job offer at a high-tech aerospace company!. Upon arriving in Bixby, Jessica discovers that she is a Midnighter and is thus able to enter the "Blue Time" - a secret hour hidden within the instant of midnight!. Over the course of the trilogy, Jessica encounters other Midnighters whom she allies herself with!. The protangonists in the triligy are Desdomona (referred to as Dess), Rex, Jonathan, and Melissa!. The antagonists of the series are the "Darklings and Slithers" - dangerous and powerful beings that created and live in the Blue Hour!.

And then there are also the wonderful, but practically less-known, Bridei Chronicles by Juliet Marillier, being her third series of historical fantasy books!. The books are well written and they depict the tutelage by Broichan, rise to power, and reign of King Bridei I of the Picts in the sixth century A!.D!.

And then of course, there are the wonderful Lord of the Rings books and The Hobbit by JRR Tolkien!.

If you have enjoyed Twilight, I am sure you will also anjoy The Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice!. They are in-depth books and Rice has in fact invented her own "mythology" about vampires!. And then there is also Hunter’s Prayer by Lilith Saintcrow which also deals with vampires

Here are some other fantasy books I would recommend you:

Mirror Dreams - Catherine Webb
Mirror Wakes - Catherine Web
The Alchemists of Barbal - David Clement-Davies
Master of Murder - Christopher Pike
Whisper of Death - Christopher Pike

And here is another list of all the books that you will definately enjoy:

House at the Corner by Enid Blytton
The Seven Dials Mystery by Agatha Christie
The Alchemist of Barbal by David Clement-Davies
Mirror Dreams by Catherine Webb
