Book recs for ten-year-old boy?

Anonymous
I need some new ideas for my ten-year-old... he loves to get into a good series so series suggestions would especially be greatly appreciated! He loves adventure tales and fantasy but is pretty open. Favorites include: Anything by Rick Riordan, the Pseudonymous Bosch Secret Series, Lemony Snicket Unfortunate Events Series, Origami Yoda books. Looking for more--thanks!
