   I think the Saga of Darren Shan (Cirque du Freak) are really entertaining. They’re about a kid (Darren Shan) who gets tuned into a vampire, and then tells his tale. I really enjoyed it. They books are quick reads because they’re compelling

   One - Cirque du Freak: A Living Nightmare
   Two - Vampire’s Assistant
   Three - Tunnels of Blood
   Four - Vampire Mountain
   Five - Trials of Initiation
   Six - Vampire Prince
   Seven - Hunters of the Dusk
   Eight - Allies of the Night
   Nine - Killers of the Dawn
   Ten - Lake of Souls
   Eleven - Lord of Shadows
   Twelve - Sons of Destiny

   A Great and Terrible Beauty & Rebel Angels(witches and other relms) by Libba Bray (Reb. Ang. was better), The Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer(vampires and werewolfs), and The Morganville Vampires series. The Twilight series I liked as musch as if not better than Harry Potter. There also is the Gardella Vampire Chronicles but it does have some “scenes” in it.

   As a seventeen year-old, you are possibly mature enough to read Anne Rice novels. I was reading them at thirteen and the content and language, though more mature than any HP book, is supported by a deeply interesting and involved plot. The movies don’t do the books justice.

   You might also like to read His Dark Materials Trilogy. Now, these books are on about the same literary level as Harry Potter, but are pretty compelling as well. I also think you might get a kick out of reading Mythology by Edith Hamilton. Don’t read all the stories-I didn’t, but just the more popular ones that you already know the names of.

   If it won’t offend you, read Angels and Demons and the Davinci Code.

   all good answers so far. i would add, Mercedes Lackey the Valdemar books
   The Arrows of the Queen, arrows flight, arrow fall, Magics pawn, Magics Promise, Magics Price, they generally go in trilogy’s theres are about 23 books altogether i think, some are trilogy’s some duolgys and a couple singles. but the best place to start is with the Arrows books.
   you might try Piers Anthony he has a lot of Sci-fi or Fantasy series. Anne Bishop, Anne Mccafferty the Dragons of Pern series are really good as well.

   and i could go on forever. i love reading so i also love sharing my adventures with anyone willing to read them as well. good luck and i hope you find more books to enjoy as much as Harry Potter.

   I would strongly suggest The Incarnations of Immortality series by Piers Anthony as well as his Xanth series (but you have to enjoy puns to really get into Xanth - but overall they are an amazing read… plus there is about 30+ of that series now so you’ll have lots to read!).

   Also, if you want to go into a more Sci-fi route, I would suggest Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card and Ender’s Shadow… and all of the books that follow that story line. Ender’s Game is about Ender Wiggins and Ender’s Shadow is about a boy named Bean. Ender’s Shadow re-tells the first book a bit but from a completely different perspective and the subsequent books in the Shadow series follow Bean, who is an amazing character.

   Another great fantasy book is Tithe by Holly Black. I haven’t read any of her other books but that is a highly enjoyable read as well.
