It's more of a fantasy, but Black, Red, and White by Ted Dekker. Awesome books, plus they're Christian.

I've heard a lot about Ted Dekker, but I've never read his books. What genre are they?

Anywhere from fantasy to thriller. Also, if you like adventures, I reccomend the Alex Rider series by Anthony Horowitz.

A Confederacy of Dunes has been my favorite summer read ever. It's a laugh riot.

As long as one has a good attention span, Dumas's stories are excellent. The Count of Monte Cristo has already been suggested; I've read The Man in the Iron Mask and The Knight of Maison-Rouge which were great. The latter is on the shorter side.

Roald Dahl wrote Matilda, yes. he also wrote The Big, Friendly Giant (the BFG), Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator, James and the Giant Peach, some book about a fox, etc.
