I have a 9 year old nephew who is at an 11th grade reading level. I bought him Invention of Hugo Cabret for Christmas. He loved it but finished it in a day. I'd like to get him something more challenging but still age appropriate for a 9 year old.

Any recommendations? I'm thinking Darksword Trilogy. Haven't read any Dragonlance stuff in decades but from what I remember that might be in his wheelhouse.

The Bartimaeus Trilogy by Jonathan Stroud is some of my absolute favorite YA and I read it when I was just a little older than him. Plus, the author is probably going to be doing an AMA here in the new year if he ends up having any questions he wants to ask Stroud.
