Lord of the rings 1, 2, 3
Harry Potter 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,
Ready Player One

Ender's Game
I recommend reading all of these books

[Anollasia]

I like To Kill a Mockingbird, The Great Gatsby, The Giver, and Bridge to Terabithia to name a few.

[Yurizlansia]

The Saxon Tales/Stories series by Bernard Cornwell is pretty good. I read one of the books from the Sharpe series which was OK, but Saxon Tales is fantastic.

I like To Kill a Mockingbird, The Great Gatsby, The Giver, and Bridge to Terabithia to name a few.

The Bridge To Terebithis is such a sad book.

[Opperkellehisbur]

I say probably the book "Tangerine", by Edward Bloor. Great book. Very emotional.

The Bridge To Terebithis is such a sad book.

It's a good kind of sadness imo. It's not like the others are that cheerful either.

Crime and Punishment and Kokoro are two of my favorites.

I recommend the all of Orson Scott Card's "Ender" books, both quadrilogies and the add-on sequel for "Ender's Game".

I also recommend Timothy Zahn's Star Wars books. They are very good and catch the true soul of the original trilogy.

Clive Cussler produces some VERY good adventure books. "The Oregon Files", about a modern day group of mercs with a very well outfitted spy ship. "Isaac Bell", about a private investigator in the early 1900s. "Dirk Pitt" and "Kurt Austin", two series about some NUMA researchers (way more interesting than they sound). "The Fargo Adventures", about a well equipped pair of treasure hunters.

Cussler also likes crossovers. For instance, Dirk Pitt, Kurt Austin, and the Oregon mercenaries know each other and occasionally appear in each other's books.

Clive Cussler also like to

cameo himself almost as much as Stan Lee.

FUN FACT: Cussler helped raise the the C.S.S. Hunley, the first military submarine to successfully sink a ship in 1864.

How about the ASOIAF books?

The Saxon Tales/Stories series by Bernard Cornwell is pretty good. I read one of the books from the Sharpe series which was OK, but Saxon Tales is fantastic.

Isn't there a netflix original that i happen to love based off of the saxon tales?

On the fantasy side of things, here's my recommendations:
-The Last Unicorn (and the quasi-sequel novella Two Hearts) by Peter S. Beagle. A fairly light read, but a very enjoyable one that you appreciate in different ways the older you get. Along similar lines, the animated movie is likewise recommended- it's a gorgeous adaptation and the voice acting, ESPECIALLY for Haggard is on point.

-The Name of the Wind and The Wise Man's Fear by Patrick Rothfuss. Solid and very fun fantasy romp with an amusing bit of a narrative twist: a historian has tracked the main character down well after his heroic, past exploits, and convinces him to relate the full story so that this historian can document an accurate account of events. Of course, with the main character telling his story, it's quite possible that he's not being an especially reliable narrator...

-Dragon Champion, Dragon Avenger, and Dragon Outcast of the Age of Fire series by E. E. Knight. NOTE: These first three books can actually be read in any order; each details the life of one of three dragon hatchlings as they grow up and face their own unique challenges in the world. Unfortunately, the latter three books of the series (the finale Dragon Fate especially) take what had been an intriguing and fascinating fantasy world and overarching storyline and completely botch it up.

-I tentatively recommend the Wheel of Time series as well, acknowledging that Jordan's writing has its many flaws and that the series suffers heavily from Loads and Loads of Characters, massive subplot bloat, and excessively wordy narration of scenes and clothing and the like. It is a good story overall, but the middle several books seriously start to drag and it may not be for everyone. (Plus you'll probably come to really dislike the main male lead by about the 2/3rd mark because he is going insane. His behavior makes sense in the context of the storyline, but you still really want someone to smack some sense into him more than once.) Those who can handle ASoIaF should be able to handle WoT.

Jennifer Government is pretty good. I saw the movie for Syrup, but not read it.

Yep. It's not bad.

Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell

[Henuld]

I think Scarecrow: Army of Thieves by Matthew Reilly is a decent book

[Rufford]

Prisoners of geography is a pretty good book about geopolitics, I'd definitely recommend it.

[Partybus]

Anything by Carl Hiaasen, even his lesser novels are awesome!

[Opperkellehisbur]

Yeah, like Scat, Flush, and Chomp

[CITY18]

I recommend The World at the End of time. It's so strange because of its far future premise.

[The Grand American League]

Isaac Asimov's Foundation collection, One of the best sci-fi collections in my opinion.

[Rosaceae]

Most things by Robert A. Heinlein are fantastic; at least if you're into science fiction. Some of my favorite reads include: Starship Troopers, which is a controversial piece of military fiction. The Moon is a harsh mistress, which is more focused on a libertarian pursuit as a lunar colony strives for independence. And lastly Stranger in a Strange Land, which involves a newcomer to Earth. Robert A. Heinlein is considered one of the great masters of modern science fiction, and I'm strongly inclined to agree.

Alll of those sound good.



Anybody read the Levithan Series?
Great plot, good explanations, and the best carachters. It also set in 1914.
