Need book ideas for a 13 year-old Christian boy?

Question

My son really loves to read but I have a hard time finding books that are interesting that don't contain magic, witchcraft, etc. Can anyone recommend a book or series that would move fairly quickly and keep his attention? I would prefer books without magic and with good morals. Thanks in advance!!

Answer 1

Any books by Ted Dekker

Answer 2

How about the books in the Bible, all the stories in the Bible, are genuine, and real,there is a book(Set of books) called "The Bible Stories, there's about 10 books in the set.Or how about National Geographic books, they come in the mail to your home, it tells about the world, nature, ice bergs, volcanoes, weather,different places around the world, different languages, cultures,etc.hope these helped!Time spent reading about the different lands, cultures, languages,are interesting out of the Bible,and you can read in National Geographic about ancient Bible lands, and where they are located in our day and age, I think that would interest your son.
