PErfect, you really need to read, Prey by Michael Crichton, I think that is how you spell it, And Also The Andromeda Strain, and Slatewiper. If you like computers and are GOOD in math, read Digital Fortress. The good thing about those books above is that EVERY single one was a bestseller at one time, and they are from world renown authors.

I've read a couple of those, and they're good. If you would like something funny, try any of the Discworld series by Terry Pratchett. He has a very well constructed world. Or the Abhorsen trilogy by Garth Nix.


It's a smart duck....watch it do math..........o.0

I'd really recommend The Bartimaeus Trilogy (The Amulet of Samarkand and The Golem's Eye so far) by Jonathan Stroud. They're amazingly witty fantasy books.

Out of the realm of those two genres, I'd recommend Angela's Ashes and 'Tis, bothe by Frank McCourt. They're really good books, but as I said, they're not sci-fi/fantasy. Autobiography-type book, but extremely interesting.

Location: PinkPT. Except when I'm not on PinkPT. No, wait. I'm confused.
The Song of Ice and Fire series By George R. R. Martin. Well, it depends. If your nine, or even 11, don't read them. Unless You are over 12(and in the case between 12 and 14, very mature) don't read. Them. If not, then read for lords sake! Wonderful books, my favorite, even though I barely fit my age ideas myself. :P
They should keep you busy for a while.

Lovely set by the equally lovely Silja!

Anne Rice's Mayfair Witches trilogie Sp or if you like well written fiction about everyday lives mostly women any thing by Maeve Binchey Light a Penny Candle is my favorite. Also Cane River is a very good read.
