It is a mix of a fantasy- , action- and detective novel, I would say. Lockwood & Co. is really good indeed! :D

Off the top of my head, I enjoyed:
  • Skullduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy
  • The Dragon King Chronicles by Ellen Oh
My brain is fried and failing me now but I'll add more to this thread later

I agree with Ranger's Apprentice and Skullduggery Pleasant, they are both awesome many-book series. They are fantasy books, both authors have good sense of humour. Also, I personally recommend Percy Jackson

I can also reccomend the complete Sherlock Holmes collection by Arthur Conan Doyle, or at least "A Study in Scarlet", The Hound of the Baskervilles" and some short stories like "A scandal in Bohemia" and "The speckled band"

They're mystery, action, adventure. Crime fiction.
