Birds_Will_Fly Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 I really enjoyed the infernal devices. Can anyone recommend a similar book they equally enjoyed? Aimed at young adult/ older? Basically nothing too cheesy! (I have read her other books) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissy Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 It depends on what you mean by similar! I've read and enjoyed The Infernal Devices, and The Mortal Instruments series, and I can jot down a few supernatural YA series I have read and enjoyed, but it depends on what aspect you were after. Was it the supernatural? Was it the Victorian atmospheric backdrop you liked? Or the steampunk style machines? Supernatural series; Rachel Caine wrote a fab series, The Morganville Vampires, set in a town. She also wrote The Weather Warden series, featuring humans with weather related 'talents', and the ancient supernatural Djinn. EE Holmes wrote a three book series, The Spirit Legacy, The Spirit Prophecy and The Spirit Ascendancy. It's all about ghosts. Maureen Johnson's Shades Of London books are set in the Whitechapel area of London, where someone is mimicking Jack The Ripper's crimes. They are all modern set series though. I do have on my To Be Read pile the Laini Taylor Daughter Of Smoke & Bone trilogy which may be more what you are after. One other place to try is The Literature Map. Good luck finding some books that fit the bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birds_Will_Fly Posted November 23, 2016 Author Share Posted November 23, 2016 I liked the supernatural side. Just the general storyline really. I've read the wolves of mercy falls and the dark divine but I found them a bit young for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
