I love Harry Potter, Obvisouly =]

But some of my other favourite books are Eragon, Eldest, Lord of the Rings, Seeker, Jango(havn't read the thrid one yet!), but right now I'm stumped on what to read next!
does anyone have any suggestions, keeping the same theme as those books?

It would really help =]

I don't know if this would exactly be keeping with the same theme as the books you mentioned, but I'd definately recommend the His Dark Materials series by Philip Pulman. biggrin.gif

You could try The Book Thief(Markus zuzack) or The Door Within(Wayne Thomas Batson). Or even The Alchemyst:The secrets of The Immortal Nicholas Flamel (Michael scott)

You've probably already read them, but The Chronicles of Narnia are very good, and sort of close to the ones you mentioned. Also, you might try any books by Tamora Pierce, but especially The Song of the Lioness quartet, and The Protector of the Small books.

Hope it helps!
