[quote=Anonymous]Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo? Some heavier themes but a bunch of superpowered teen protagonists, about 2/3rds male. Slightly less modern, but Diana Wynne Jones and Ursula K Le Guin have lots of good male protagonists. Also Susan Cooper -- The Dark is Rising series as well as King of Shadows. Mercedes Lackey also has some boys, although she does tend to more female protagonists. I like Take a Thief by her and Brightly Burning (although that one's very tragic so YMMV depending on the kid). For a slightly older teen, I really like the Imager series by L. E. Modesitt Jr. as well. Lots of plot and interesting magic and a great main character. If you can find a copy, The Player's Boy and The Players and the Rebels by Antonia Forest are wonderful historical fiction (with male protagonist).[/quote]
