Urban Fantasy is where the author sets a fantasy novel in our world. Within the fantasy genre it is probaby my favourite variant. I would let my 13 year old read all of these except Bitten. That one may take a couple more years.
On the Edge by Ilona Andrews Set in the place where the magical world and the human world meets.
Bitten by Kelley Armstrong Werewolves. Enjoyable but I have not yet read any more
Moon called by Patricia Briggs Mercy Thompson is a shapeshifting coyote living near werewolves, who mends cars for a living and one of her customers is a vampire. Worth reading in order. This is the first. The others are: Blood bound; Iron kissed; and then 3 more
Cry wolf by Patricia Briggs Also about werewolves but a different series
Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr Keenan the Fairy King of the Summer court is looking for his summer queen. Ashlinn a human girl can see fairies although she pretends not to. This series is quite sad at times but I think beautifully written. The others are Ink Exchange; Fragile Eternity; Radiant Shadows; Darkest Mercy
Percy Jackson and he Lightning Thief by Rck Riordan Percy is the son of a Greek God and has to battle monsters like the heroes of old. First in a series of 5.
