Right now I'm reading the third book in the Mistborn series by Brandon Sanderson. I absolutely loved the first 2 and this is growing to be one of my favorite series of all time. I'm going to continue reading Sanderson books after this, apparently they're all connected.

I like that series too but I goofed it. Without realizing it I started book four which starts a different time frame. A fantastic world and great characters. I like the story better than "The Way of Kings" even though that one is very well done.

That reminds me, Zer0es by Chuck Wendig is really good if you're into modern speculative fiction (and care about technological accuracy in your hacker-culture fiction).

And THAT reminds me of another favorite -- BZRK by Michael Grant.

OMG I'm addicted to Brandon Sanderson. Mistborn series was awesome. I also recommend his Reckoner series which is quite entertaining.

Oh -- and Morgan -- totally agree on Ready Player One. I hope the new movie doesn't chop it up too much. At least Speilberg is directing, so there's hope.

I recently discovered two gems by Robert L Forward, Dragon's Egg and Starquake. As a lifelong SciFi fan I'm ashamed to admit I hadn't read them sooner.

I'm a big fan of The Lord of The Rings series by J.R.R. Tolkien. Also, Solaris by Stanislaw Lem is a great book. Very intriguing and I was enjoying every part. However, I started to read more non-fiction books. You can learn different things and facts from them, and I think they are very useful.

The last SciFi book I read was Artemis by Andy Weir. It's more of a thriller and it's not as drawn out as The Martian. Like The Martian, it does take creative liberties with science. But it was a real page turner and I couldn't put it down.

I'm not sure I could list them all! Older Sci-Fi/Fantasy favorites are Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis, A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle, and anything by Tolkien. Newer favorites though are The Mapmaker Trilogy by S.E. Grove, Caraval trilogy by Stephanie Garber, Timeless Fairy Tales series by K.M. Shea, most of Jasper Fforde's books, Time Traveler's Never Die by Jack McDevitt, Legend of the Guardian-King series by Karen Hancock, Rock by Sharon Cameron, and The Classical Kingdoms series by Brittany Fichter.
