Best Answer

JRR Tolkien - The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings

CS Lewis - The Chronicles of Narnia

Jonathan Stroud - The Bartimaeus Trilogy

Eoin Colfer - Artemis Fowl

Phillip Pullman - His Dark Materials (The Golden Compass)

Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black - Spiderwick Chronicles

Cornelia Funke - The Inkworld Trilogy (Inkheart)

Christopher Paolini - The Inheritance Cycle (Eragon)

Well there is the above which all have different themes,

You will not find another wizarding story involving two wizards and witch pitted against fantasy monsters, battles, an education at a castle, soul object destroying or adventure of that exact.

But, Rick Riordan's Percy Jacks Books are a lot like Harry Potter, it involves two males and girl hero of a young age maturing through the book series and growing up, they do face fantasy monsters, it does a witty similar sense of humour to what Joanne Kathleen Rowling, it features a Camp which bears training classes four houses for the student like demi-gods of The Olympian Series which takes similar vein to Harry Potter with Hufflepuff, Gryffindor, Ravenclaw and Slytherin.

Most people compare the Chronicles Of Narnia for it has seven books in the series, has a fantastical world to which they're brought in and there's fantastical monsters.

But Percy Jackson also spawned a film directed by Chris Columbus director of the first two Harry Potter film adaptions.

First, make sure you read the entire series. The seven main books, and the two "school books" - Quidditch Through the Ages; and Phantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. Those are smaller books. - Also, the recent Tales of Beedle the Bard.

Other Fantasy Books you may enjoy are Tolkien - The Hobbit, and Lord of the Rings, and the books written by Terry Brooks (Sword of Shannara, and others).

You may also enjoy some good Science Fiction, like Isaac Asimov; his Foundation series is very famous, and with reason; Frank Herbert ("Dune" and others); Robert A. Heinlein; Theodore Sturgeon; and others.
