It is very engaging and has heaps of suspense.
A 15 year old boy has to fight the evil king and the Urgals and other evil creatures. He has his allies - the elves and the rebel group - the Varden. He and his dragon Saphira fight to rid the land of evil. It is especially good because it was written by a 15 year old although it was finished when he was 19.

coverErak's Ransom by John Flanagan
This is a must read for all science fiction pursuers. Word by word it entrances you to read till the very last word.

It combines all the characters in his previous books to rescue ransom of the Skandian oberjarl, Erak with vigorous dangers arousing them at every move…

Well, Harry Potter is entering his sixth year at Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry. Read it to find out who the half blood prince is and discover the secret of someone dying who everyone will miss and finally react when a person who seems good enough is really a traitor. Well that's enough from me and if you don't feel inspired to read the book because of my poor review read it anyway. It is excellent even if my review is not.
