idk, I say the same stuff regardless. Sometimes people like what I say, sometimes they don’t

Around the point where you start looking for excuses not to read it and need to force your way through it

They don’t really fit the criteria from op, but they’re both must reads

My 3 main recommendations were already mentioned but I’ll mention them again for visibility.

Stormlight Archives by Brandon Sanderson. There are actually multiple main characters, but the world building is top notch. I haven’t finished the series yet (it’s my “read during lunch” series atm) but so far there are 2 male main characters in the 18-25ish range

The Codex Alera by Jim Butcher. The main character starts around 12 and there are arguably multiple main characters, but it’s a damn good series. Think ancient Rome but everyone controls elementals

Lightbringer by Brent Weeks. A fantastic series where the government and religions of the world are built around the magic system. The series happens over a few years but the main character starts at around 15

Since I mentioned Lightbringer I also want to mention The Night Angel Trilogy by Brent Weeks. It’s a dark fantasy series featuring magically gifted assassins. Most of the good guys are criminals and murderers. It’s a brutal series with an excellent cast of characters and a world that feels like it’s been through hell. The main character starts off as a kid, but is in his 20s by the end of the series

If you don’t mind a somewhat bleak post apocalyptic book, I really liked Metro 2033 by Dmitri Glukhovsky.

There’s a game series based on it too, but you asked for books and I haven’t played the games

Nuking your comments doesn’t hurt Reddit or Spez, it just hurts other users who are looking for the answers that you gave. If you want to leave Reddit, it’s better to just leave

Imagine seeing a tiny, fast speck that can easily just be static or a small piece of trash on the wind after days of nothing. You probably wouldn’t immediately report it either. And that’s assuming you noticed it at all. Bees are very small, especially when you’re looking at them with a device meant to detect planes

tbh, I kinda like it. Feathery dinosaurs are a look I can get used to

But I like my pants…

Jerboa wouldn’t let me log in for some reason

I tried Liftoff, ran into some login issues, and some other minor annoyances and switched to Connect. So far I’m liking connect
