At almost 15, my once-avid reader DS is 'coming back' to books after an enjoyable few years in online fantasy gaming and book-avoidance.
He's a good reader (sticks his nose in and doesn't appear for days if it's interesting to him) and has 'done' Hunger Games, Maze Runner, endless teenage angst-ridden dystopian future novels and a lot of fiction aimed at teens. I think he's a bit very fed up of the whole dystopian fantasy stuff.
I think what he'd quite like now are adult fiction books which are good page turners rather than high literature. Stephen King would freak him out (seriously, he gets wibbly watching Coraline) and I don't want too much sex.
Crime, espionage, good exotic locations, conspiracy theories,a well drawn 'baddie' etc.
So, any suggestions? What's Wilbur Smith like? Dan Brown has a bit too much romping in, from what I remember, but that kind of thing would appeal I think.
What are your older boys reading and enjoying?
