I've read and loved all the books you mention except for The Harrowing :17:

 

Other books that I enjoyed just as much include:

 

Southern Vampire Mysteries - Charlaine Harris

His Dark Material (Trilogy) - Phillip Pullman

Anything by Neil Gaiman

 

I'm currently making my way through Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles and while there are moments in some of the books where you need to persevere, they're fantastic! Especially Interview With The Vampire, Queen of the Damned and The Body Thief.

 

:D Hope you find something you'll enjoy :D

One of the best writers in English - whose stories often involve spiritual and other-worldly coincidences - was a woman from Denmark.

 

Isak Dinesen aka Baroness Karen Blixen.

 

Highly recommended: Seven Gothic Tales.

I just remembered another author: Belgian Jean Ray.

One of the greatest horror writers, who however remains rather unknown and untranslated (French).

 

One of his most disturbed and disturbing works is Malpertuis which was made into a movie in 1971. An English translation was available.

I suggest reading Steve Berry books if you like suspense and history. He takes a certain time period or person and writes a on the edge of your seat book. At the end of his book he will then write what is real and what he made up. It's really interesting because you learn some things about history in a fun way!

 

I think you would also really like Daniel Silva's Gaberial Allon series, Kathy Reichs series Temperance Brennan, Beverly Connor has a series and I can't remember the character's name but the first book is One Grave Too Many, and finally anything from Val McDermid! Hope this helps!! :friends0:
