Any Peirs Anthony Book.
First Thing The Series Are Long. BUT They Dont Continue The Same Thing For The Entire Series.
Kinda like and episode of Doctor Who (Not one with parts) They Have A Story And Then Its Over After The Episode.
My Recommendation is Incarnations Of Immortality.
Book 1 On A Pale Horse. Which Is About Death. Thanatos
Book 2 Bearing An Hourglass. Which Is About Time. Chronos
Book 3 With A Tangled Skein. Which Is About Fate. Atropos, Lachesis, and Clotho
Book 4 Wielding A Red Sword. Which Is About War. Mars
Book 5 Being A Green Mother. Which is About Nature. Gaea
Book 6. For The Love Of Evil. Which Is About Evil. Satan
Book 7. And Eternity. Which is About Good. God
Book 8. Under A Velvet Cloak. Which Is About Night. Nox
DONT READ UNLESS IF YOU WANT TO HAVE THE BOOK RUINED.

Piers Anthony also has the Xanth books. 38 of them All follow a different story.

Some books that I really like:


Wintercraft Series by Jenna Burtenshaw
 - Wintercraft
 - Wintercraft: Blackwatch
 - Wintercraft: Legacy

This may sound like a cheesey fail from some author, but to my taste of dark magic - it's the best book I've ever read.

Percy Jackson was also a good read to.

okay.. my book list *ahem*

the books by robin hobb
terry goodkind is a amazing writer too
trudi canavan has some amazign wrok
alexandre dumas, kind of hard to get through but books like the three musketeers and the count of monte christo are worth it
john steinbeck, of mice and men and the acts of king arthur and his noble knights are worth it.
Jean m. auel. specially her first book
a book like jungle book, dracula and watership down are always good too. while we're on dracula, frankenstein is an amazing book too. jules verne with around the world in 80 days is good too

and well, whatever is mentioned before is mostly worth it too. i left em out cause they were names so much already.
Dumas :3

Obviously lol.

DJ is a well educated fellow. Born to parents of Russian origin, who read Tolstoy, Dumas, Frankenstein and other works in the 6th grade. Either for fun or for class.

Plus, how can you NOT read the Three Musketeers, man?! Though I have yet to read War and Peace because the size of the book intimidates me. I can knock out 400 page books in a day or two but that thing just scares me.

Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell
Freakonomics by Stephen J. Dubner and Steven D. Levitt
They really show you the hidden side of the modern world O.o
Otherwise all other recommended books have been recommended.

Edit:If you like mystery, check out Clive Cussler.  He has too many books to name sooo...

Didn't he say books without a lot of sequels? And then EXACTLY specify "like harry potter or LoTR"?
And then I see that half the first page of this topic is people suggesting Harry Potter and other series. :I

Much disappoint.

1984 by George Orwell is a great book.
