Royal Institute Of Magic

If you enjoyed Harry Potter, you’ll enjoy this series just as much, but that’s not to say they’re the same. Royal Institute of Magic does have a school, mythical creatures, and a sense of wonder, but it also goes further in places. Victor Kloss’ world-building is exceptional, reaching and sometimes even surpassing the imagination of Rowling as he tells the story of a boy trying to find his parents and the quest to unravel a family secret. Despite this, the plot is by no means simple. Aside from protagonist Ben Greenwood, there’s an exceptional supporting cast, including Charlie, his female sidekick. As the two set off on a journey of discovery, a much deeper backstory surfaces, one that tells of an oppressive evil. Stretching across five books, the series has a truly epic feel, regaling Ben’s progress through the institute and the dark elf invasion.
