Definitely, definitely, read The Neverending Story by Michael Ende. It is the best fantasy novel I have ever read. I have read a lot of fantasy and trust me the concepts in this book are not childish, nothing else I have read comes close to Ende's inventiveness, skill, and creativity. Anyways please read this book and anyone else who reads this post check this book out you will be amazed after you read it, the movie does no justice to this masterpiece. :jointsmile:

If you are looking into science fiction definitely check out the book "Salt" by Adam Roberts. It is a good science fiction novel, written excellently. If you are into science fiction with more technology and "hard science" check out some Alastair Reynolds. His books are sometimes lengthy but they are jam-packed with wild ideas and crazy scientific details like deep-time, interstellar travel and relativity, alien races, new technology, artificial intelligence, etc. I personally reccomend the book House of Suns, it is my favourite science fiction book. I highly reccomend House of Suns to anyone it is an excellent book, completely full of intense ideas that will boggle your mind.

Anyways please look into these books everyone
