I fully agree, I've been reading books 1 and 2 for my son(12), and he loves it. But we're behind schedule with book 3, because we started on Stravaganza by Mary Hoffman, see also http://www.stravaganza.co.uk/ and Harry Potter 5 is due out this week in Dutch. It will be difficult to decide how to continue.
