Attention please Roisin or mums of pre-teen boys please

Hello! I am looking for book recs that are boy friendly, for ages 11 and 12, some of which might also appeal to KS3 boys but with reading ages of 7-9 and others for boys with reading ages to match or be just above chronological. Not the obvious ones like Horrowitz, Young Bond, Artmeis Fowl, as I know those but ones that are maybe newer than that or older with lasting appeal.

Thanks ever so.

got to add the Ranger's Apprentice series to this list.
My 10 yr old has just devoured the series and it's not too primary.

My son, year 6 (aged 11) has read most of these mentioned (quite an advanced reader). I wasn't a great fan of the Robert Muchamore ones, etc but he loved them. However, just got him some Alex Shearer ones out of the library the other day and he really liked Sea Legs and has just started The Great Switcheroonie. Will be looking out for some more of these I think.
