In addition to the suggestions above I would have thought he would enjoy any of the Michael Morpugo books for older children, e.g. War Horse, Kensuke's Kingdom.
You might try the Cressida Cowell dragon books, e.g. 'How to Train your Dragon'. There are about 10 in the series.
'Goodnight Mr Tom' by Michelle Magorian is another good story.
There are kindle editions of many titles now.
