My husband has started reading Harry Potter. He's been carrying the book around the house, and it's adorable. Now, if I could only get him to try His Majesty's Dragon, given his penchant for Patrick O'Brien books...

Listen to the Harry Potter audio books read by Jim Dale. The story-reading is incredible and is very consistent throughout the gazillion pages. It is better than listening to the BBC audio-books of the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. I am trying to locate the radio show of the HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

Other fiction books that this male enjoys:
Bartimaeus Trilogy - Stroud
Percy Jackson and the Olympians - Riordan
Fablehaven - Mull
Inkheart and the second book - Funke

* Anything by Jules Verne and H. Rider Haggard

The early Robert Heinlein books are interesting sci-fi. The later ones are horrible.

If you can find them, Rod Sterling's Twilight Zone series is enjoyable.

One can always follow the advice from billboards in Indiana: "An educated man is one who reads The Bible." This is different from other billboards stating "Real men don't need porn." and "Porn is the other woman."
