The Magicians by Lev Grossman

This is a New York Time's bestselling novel about a college in the "real world" that teaches magic. It's a bit raunchier than Harry Potter's story was, because this one contains quite a bit of sex and booze. Of course, there's plenty of magic in it as well in order to give you your fantasy fix.

This is a series of eight fantasy novels. It's about a teenage criminal who ends up capturing a fairy. After he does, he holds her for ransom in order to gain money for his struggling family.

J.K. Rowling has written more about Hogwarts than you could ever imagine. Not only are there seven Harry Potter books, but she's also written books called The Tales of Beatle the Bard, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, and Quidditch Through the Ages. Although it was originally under a pseudonym, she's also written an amazing book called Cuckoo's Calling. Although it has nothing to do with magic or a fantasy world, it showcases some of her best work.

Fablehaven is really good too

The Percy Jackson and Heroes of Olympus series is amazing.

I don't watch Harry Potter so I don't really like Harry Potter

The Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis are also an amazing choice for readers who love Harry Potter. Just like Harry Potter, everything has a underlying meaning and there is lots of magic in the series.

Percy Jackson is the best. It's about a 12 year old boy, and the Olympic gods are real. He's a demigod (half God half mortal) and it's an amazing series. Heroes of Olympus is great too

I would also recommend the Fablehaven series for Harry Potter fans. Fantastic fantasy novels. I'm in love with them!

Artemis fowl is on point!!!!

The Percy Jackson Series is amazing! ❤️

I like that owl one but never read it
