The Septimus Heap series is about wizards, queens, and magical creatures. The main characters are growing up in a time when their kingdom is in trouble and they discover that they may be the ones to save it!
Angie Sage writes very exciting stories. She includes a large number of characters in every book and manages to tie them all together by the end. The only bad thing about starting this series is that she hasn't finished writing it, which means you may have to wait and wait before you can read the next book. I have one word of warning: Angie Sage likes to use fancy spelling for any magical word, which can be confusing.

Gregor is a regular boy who lives in New York City. He falls through a hole with his little sister and ends up underground where creatures of the night like bats, rats, and cockroaches are as big as humans and can talk! There is a magnificent city of humans as well and they decide that Gregor is the warrior of their prophecies.
These books are very exciting and Susan Collins does a great job of creating interesting characters and plot twists. However, the main plot in the books is about a war between the humans and the rats, which can be a bit scary and sad. I personally enjoy books that can make me feel many emotions. I couldn't put them down.

Garth Nix is one of my favorite authors because he is so creative. This story is about a boy named Arthur who is randomly chosen by powerful magical people to inherit great power. There are seven books in the series, one for each day of the week, in which Aurthur needs to face a different foe. These books are full of adventure and exciting characters. They can be a little bit scary, but there are many funny parts as well.
