I love Rick Riordan! I read all his books except the adult ones. Can anyone recommend new series/ author similar to his works?

Give the Young Sherlock Holmes a read, those are pretty good. Also, Charlie Bone series is really good.
I second the Septimus Heap ones as well!

Not yet. I heard many negative reviews about it. Is it good?

The Eragon series is a great series if you like Lord of the Rings type books. It's nearly at the top of my favorites list. I just started the Bartimaeus series and I'm liking it so far. Others on my favorites list are I Am Number Four, Septimus Heap, Artemis Fowl, Divergent, City of Ember, The Golden Compass, The Hunger Games, Inkheart, and Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel. Hope this helps.

Check out Shadow and Bone. Since you loved Divergent/Insurgent maybe try the Delirium series or Across the Universe! I enjoyed them as well.

Hello . I'm a Rick Riordan fan too :D

I second The Ranger's Apprentice . It's about coming of age , taking up responsibilities , a new life etc . About joining an Elite team of Rangers . They are confident , decisive , responsible peace-keepers . They are known for their deadly aim in archery and for the clever , easy way they solve problems and the mysterious aura about them . Besides , the book has some really good characters and some even more really good humour :-) Even Rick Riordan said he liked it in twitter if I remember right . You must have seen this before , but anyway here's a link to books Rick Riordan recommends

Eragon is a mash up of LOTR , Star Wars and some other books . But it does have some charm and atmosphere , even though I was really annoyed at the way some characters were treated like heroes by the author and his other characters when what they did was anything by heroic . But it was kind of rectified in the end . So it's an ok book to read if you haven't watched Star Wars , cos it's rather heavily 'influenced' by it :lol:

I highly recommend Eoin's Artemis Fowl series! But for something also fantasy and a bit more "adult" A song of ice and fire is great as well.
