View Full Version : Book Suggestions
I'm almost done reading a trilogy and I will be left with nothing to read. I was wondering if anyone could suggest a good book, or better, a series of books. I mostly read fantasy books with magic and whatnot in it, but I also enjoy Dan Brown's books, and stuff like that. My favorite series was the inheritance cycle (Eragon, Eldest, Brisingr, Inheritance) and I have yet to find anything I like more. I'm open to any genre, and any author, and any book. So, please give me suggestions. Thanks

If you like fantasy I am sure you will like the Wheel of Time series (WoT), it is a long read though of 14 books but it is truly a great series in my opinion.
IF you want some info on it here is a link --> WoT (http://www.dragonmount.com/Books/index.php)

I started reading the first one a while ago. I got bored and read another book. I might give it another shot. If a book can't captivate me quickly, I get bored. But I could definitely try again. I've heard lots of good reviews. I just gotta get past the beginning -.- I'm not very patient

DragonLance Series. I love it so much. Sooo good.
It's not really fantasy. but it's medieval. Pillars of the Earth and World Without End(Sequel) by Ken Follet are both very good books. They are also very long. Each book goes through at least two generations of a family. (It's the same family throughout both).
It is by far my favorite book to date.
Edit: Also "A Song of Ice and Fire" series is good. The books in these series are, in order: A Game of Thrones, A Clash of Kings, A Storm of Swords, A Feast for Crows, A Dance with Dragons, The Winds of Winter(Not Yet released), A Dream of Spring(Not Yet released).
All written by George R. R. Martin.
"A song of Ice and Fire" is fantasy, but it leans a bit more to the realistic side. But you'll see things such as Whitewalkers and Dragons.

The Mercy Thompson Series is good. About 7 books in it so far.
Also, idk if your into manga but if you want something to read, thats a good road to go down.

Sometimes when I want to read a book I pop in Skyrim on my xbox and read the Amazing Tales of Ulfric and the Chicken. There are comedy, romance, and action scenes all in it.

Highly reccomend a song of ice and fire. Read the first book, then watch game of thrones on HBO. Totally made my last summer. I've read all the books 3 times now.
50 Shades Of Gray
Get the fuck out of here.

Impossible, because they're not all out yet.
Looks like I've got a really long list of books again... Yay! Feel free to keep them coming (the list doesn't include 50 shades of gray. I know what that is)

It's not a series, actually it's the exact opposite, it's a short story for which you've probably seen the terribly made movie. Read I Am Legend by Richard Matheson. It's very good. Has a completely different ending than the movie.

If you do read books in the DragonLance series (Which I HIGHLY reccommend if you enjoy medieval fantasy like I do .. which reminds me I still have to finishing reading Inheritance xD), I would start with the DragonLance Chronicles (Dragons of Autumn Twilight, Dragons of Winters Night, Dragons of Spring Dawning) and then move onto DragonLance Legends (Time of the Twins, War of the Twins, Test of the Twins). DragonLance Chronicles gets you to know the characters better, although I'm sure that there are books before that that can explain the Lore better and such and have past plots and characters. It's just where I chose to start. There are a LOT of books in the DragonLance series, that is just where I chose to start. I'm starting up another trilogy within the DragonLance series now, although I lost the book going back and forth to college so I have to rebuy it =/ I'm sure you'll love them though. Its VERRRYYY DnD like xD

Aside from the HALO books and Dan Brown series, I've never been much of a series reader. I can say however that any book by Michael Crichton is AWESOME. He wrote Jurassic Park (And the Lost World which was so much better than the movie), Timeline, Congo, and the Andromeda Strain. If you like a mix between science and fiction, then he is PERFECT. Aside from him, I really liked 1984 by George Orwell if you haven't read it yet (normally it's required in school).

If you like modern day thrillers, medieval fantasy, and Christian allusion, check out The Circle Series (http://www.amazon.com/Circle-Ted-Dekker/dp/1595547924) by Ted Dekker.
What I linked you to is the complete set of novels, which include Black, Red, White, and Green (which is both the beginning and the end of the series - creating an infinite loop of awesome).
There is also a children's/teenage version set in the same universe called The Lost Books (http://www.amazon.com/The-Lost-Books-Box-Set/dp/159554898X/ref=pd_bxgy_b_text_c).
I thoroughly enjoyed all of the novels in both of the series that are connected in the same universe.
If you want something more medieval and more Robin Hood related, I suggest The King Raven Trilogy (http://www.amazon.com/King-Raven-The-Trilogy/dp/1401685382/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1341426900&sr=1-1&keywords=King+Raven), which is Stephen Lawhead's imagining of the Robin Hood legend in a legitimate but fantastical world. That link also contains the box set which has the novels Hood, Scarlet, and Tuck.
Either series is amazing!
