@bookstodon I'm looking for book recommendations for an 11yo who reads at a much more advanced level. He likes sci-fi. He has read the Hitchhiker's Guide series and loved them. I think he would enjoy some more 'hard' sci-fi as well. He needs something challenging but without subject matter that is too mature. Thanks for any help!

Nathan Lowell's Solar Clipper series is not very hard science but it is a good space opera and our protagonist starts out as a teenage boy, who over the course of the series works his way up to own a trading ship.

And the last line of "The Nine Billion Names of God"

The vorKosigan series gets into some pretty mature stuff - I dunno that most of Miles' adventures would be suitable for an 11 year old. Or for that matter, Aral and Cordelia's story, at the beginning.

I was more thinking of Miles' sex life.
