 | Honor Among Enemies by David Weber

 | Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Book 3) Paperback by J.K. Rowling
Buy new: £4.40 / Used from: £0.01 The best of the series yet in my opinion, to me it doesn't read like a children's book at all.
|
 | Sahara by Clive Cussler
Buy new: £5.49 / Used from: £0.01 Like James Bond (lots of explosions and impossible escapes from certain deaths) in an ocean or at least water-related environment. Good exciting read with nice 'what if' plot twists.
