Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I love this series! I agree that it is similar to Harry Potter and yet it has a charm and beauty all its own. I wish more people knew about it!

At Yahoo answers when I read people asking for ideas on what they can read that's similar to Harry Potter, I suggest this series. I have read the books in order and I am currently reading Charlie Bone and the Beast.

I read on the net that Warner Bros has purchased the rights to the first book. If the movie is faithful to the novel, I think we will see more people reading the series.

I really love the characters of these books, especially that of Charlie's uncle. You really feel for them. The unfolding story of the Red King has really captured my interest too--it has such a mystical, poetic quality to it. And just like Rowling, Nimmo really knows the power of giving her readers clues and pieces which are nicely spread out over many books.

I also find the concept of the endowed childrens' having these unusual abilities so interesting, especially Charlie's.
