Need suggestions, please!

I want to buy some fiction books for my boys (age(15 & 12). Up until an year or so ago they have been into Charlie Higson boos like Silver fin etc. I’m away from them and don’t want to ask them directly (it’s going to be a surprise). Please suggest some good authors for boys of this age. It’s been ages I did not get them any fiction as they are busy with Hifz.So I’ll appreciate all the help I can get, please!

Harry Potter!!! :wub: :wub: I’ve read them all and told my brother to start reading them when he was 12 and he looooved them. He’s a bookworm now (he’s 17) thanks to HP (and me :stuck_out_tongue: ) . The best series ever!

the divergent trilogy by veronica roth
the mortal instruments by cassandra clare
the artemis fowl series by eion colfer
the cirque du freak series by darren shan
under the dome by stephen king
the kane chronicles by rick riordan. same author as for the percy jackson series. this series focuses on egyptian mythology.
the graveyard book by neil gaiman. it’s a bit creepy in the beginning, but towards the middle it’s hilarious.
