David Eddings - Polgara the Sorceress.

Just got done the Belgariad and Mallorean series, and finishing up with the Belgarath/Polgara books.

Not quite sure what I'll hit next. Been on a fantasy run lately, and if GRR Martin would get his next damned book out.....might pick up the new Temeraire book, and the new Greg Keyes book.

I recently started reading Harry Potter 7 :S. For any sci-fi fans I STRONGLY recommend reading Hyperion, Fall of Hyperion, Endymion, Rise of Endymion and Terror by Dan Simmons. They're unbelievably good.

That's the first time I've ever seen anyone else refer to those, but I think that, next to Dune, they're the pinnacle of sf. Some of the best books I've ever read, and I've read a few.

I also really liked Ilium/Olympos by Simmons too.

I'm looking for a book... I'm 16 and I haven't read a lot in my short life. But I do know I loved The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time by Mark Haddon.
Any suggestions? It needs to be fun to read...
Thanks

P.S: I rather it to be a realistic book and not fantasy.

Preston/Child's "The Wheel of Darkness", Aloysius Pendergast and his ward Constance Greene once again champion the light in yet another classic battle between good and evil.
