Mistborn trilogy, and Alloy of Law too, by Brandon Sanderson?

Surprised it has gone unmentioned, Sanderson's books are pure gold.


Heck yeah!
Jumping on the Sanderson hype train, I'd like to recommend the Stormlight Archive series.

Okay, quick question. How are Rick Riordan's books not on here. Percy Jackson, Kane Chronicles, and even Magnus Chase are legends. In my opinion anyway.

Rick's shown up here a few times now:

So, um...

The Lightning Thief
The Sea of Monsters
The Titan's Curse
The Battle of The Labyrinth (Coming Soon)

The series is called Percy Jackson and The Olympians.

All by Rick Riordan

What about Heroes of Olympus by Rick Riordan? It has 4 books already!


But don't panic, this isn't the first time this has happened. I know Watchmen got mentioned two or three times despite it being on the OP, saw a couple mentions for Eragon / the Inheritance series, two for Terry Pratchett's works, and so on. People have gone on to nominate a good amount of the same few books and there's not a whole lot to be done to stop them.

For future reference though, for anyone interested and new to this whole thing, the 'Search Thread' tool up at the top right corner is pretty helpful for checking to see what titles have been posted before you make a recommendation, or for any readers out there, a good way to keep from checking out the same book twice if your goal's just to read down the line. No one's making you, but just a tip.

Also hey guys, this thread's active again. If anyone wants to post some more books, there's no better time than the present. I'd recommend the Hellblazer series for starters -- that's the John Constantine character's Vertigo series. I'd name authors and artists but I recall it having gone through several. But to my knowledge, it's one of the longest ongoing series' in which the characters were allowed to age in real time, or as close as you can really get to it in a graphic novel. I'll be on Volume 4 once I can get my hands on a copy of it and I'm liking it a lot so far; volume 2's a favorite of mine. There are some mature themes in there though, so it's not something I'd hand over to a minor.

I suggest the Inkworld Series - Cornelia Funke and the Tunnels Series - Roderick Gordon & Brian Williams
