Lord of the Rings is always good, as is the Foundation and Robot series by Issac Asimov. Dune series is also good, and there was another one by Frank Herbert called The Dragon in the Sea that was really good, a bit short though.

Those are some thoroughly awful suggestions. Great way to make kids hate reading.

[BoogieWoman]

Any of Chad Kultgen's books. My favourite is The Lie.

[/list]

 

[mike_e]

Ender's Game

 

[Scaredwhiteboy]

You're an idiot. No kid wants to read a book for its moral value or its beautiful prose. The only way kids will enjoy reading is if the book is entertaining enough to keep them reading. None of the books you suggested are that entertaining.

Like seriously, how do you explain the immense success of Harry Potter, Eragon, The Hunger Games, or the Game of Thrones among teens if you legitimately think teens aren't interested in fantasy novels?

 

[.Rybak.]

The maze runner series.

 

[yourthemannowdog]

Anything by Hegel or Spinoza. Teenagers like obscure things
