I'm trying to find books for my reluctant fiction reader ds.

He is happy to read reference books on dinosaurs, wild animals, sharks, astronomy, Greek mythology but is v hard to please in terms of fiction.

He loved the dinosaur cove books, Ronald Dahl and David Walliams but nothing else seems to have grabbed him.
Ds is v similar to dh who only enjoyed science fiction as a youngster so I thought I may suggest a few for ds.

Any ideas please?

Have a look at Scavenger, a new sci fi series by Paul Stewart and Chris Riddell. They've produced some fantastic books over the years ( muddle earth, edge chronicles,) so I'm expecting it to be good. Also recent is Sophia McDougall's Mars Evacuees.
