Fellow bookworms, I am glad to announce that I am at the last book of Cosmere (Yumi and the Nightmare Painter). And then, I will have finished it all. So this is where I need your help. Recommend me some awesome Sci-fi and Fantasy books that you believe will blow away my mind, like the impact needs to be huge, cannot believe this happened type of stuff. Preferred genre are Sci-fi and Fantasy, but if you know some awesome book from other genre, don’t hold back, all suggestions are welcome.

Thank you in advance.

UPDATE: Piranesi is currently on lead and I am almost finished with Yumi, so that is the next on my list. But don’t let that stop the recommendations coming. Eventually all of us are going to run out of recommendations ;)

    There is a definite ending to the Dune, in books 7 and 8 written by author’s son. Some people might say they are worse than originals, and they would be correct, but you are also right about that it gets worse already in the two last books by the original author, that’s why i suggested 4 first books, they are also thematically linked and book 4 is a true masterpiece.

    Warhammer lore is too vast, but Gaunt’s Ghosts are pretty consistent and you don’t need to know basically anything outside the series itself (unlike the Horus Heresy, that i wouldn’t recomend, it’s not only too long but also simply bad), i certainly didn’t when i read first books in the series.
