Tamara Smith asked this question about Mistborn Trilogy Boxed Set (Mistborn, #1-3):
What age is this book appropriate for? 11 yo old?
Linda Barnett No, there is way too much violence, some of it very graphic, for an 11 year old. If they like fantasy go with something like the Harry Potter series, …moreNo, there is way too much violence, some of it very graphic, for an 11 year old. If they like fantasy go with something like the Harry Potter series, any of Robin Hobbs books would probably be appropriate, Rick Riodan's Percy Jackson series, or Kenneth Oppel's Airborn series is also good.

Most of Anne McCaffery's books - and there are a lot - would also be good for them to read. She has a dozen, at least, different series and writes a very engaging story no matter which one you start with.

There is a LOT of young adult sf and fantasy out there that doesn't have overt sex and violence and that would be better for an avid 11 year old reader.(less)
