Bokk Thief is... *shudders with delight*

Should anybody have read that book, or just wants realistic fiction, try A Long Walk to Water.

Yes.

I also recommend Gone with the Wind and The Secret Life of Bees for some more incredible fiction.

Revive!

Does anybody know of a good book that I would be interested in? Kind of a science fiction sort of book. Something that has lots of action. No magic though, I can't stand that stuff (magic like witchcraft, spells, necromancy, demons, stuff like that). Any ideas?

If you're a Christian and you aren't bugged by a lot of spiritual stuff then I would recommend the Peleg Chronicles. Great book series, they are a little short though. But great writing, really brings you into the story.

I am a follower of Christ. I'll be sure to check it out

I'm not a fan of sorcery (outside of HP), and I enjoyed this book.  It doesn't have magic or demons, but it does portray an alternate world.  It has quite of bit of action; I recommend it.

Plot Synopsis

From the Publishers:
Darcy Jones doesn't remember anything before the day she was abandoned as a child outside a Chicago firehouse. She has never really belonged anywhere--but she couldn't have guessed that she comes from an alternate world where the Great Chicago Fire didn't happen and deadly creatures called Shades terrorize the human population.
Memories begin to haunt Darcy when a new boy arrives at her high school, and he makes her feel both desire and desired in a way she hadn't thought possible. But Conn's interest in her is confusing. It doesn't line up with the way he first looked at her.
As if she were his enemy.
When Conn betrays Darcy, she realizes that she can't rely on anything--not herself, not the laws of nature, and certainly not him. Darcy decides to infiltrate the Shadow Society and uncover the Shades' latest terrorist plot. What she finds out will change her world forever...

Does anyone know of a good book series that has a strong fantasy aspect to it similar to LOTR or Gameof Thrones? I am about to finish the Redwall series, and I will need a new series. Thanks!

You can try "Dragon's Moon" by Lucy Monroe. The book is part of a series and, although I haven't read all its parts, it definitely has some fantasy going on (dragons and wolves mainly, if you like those).
