Sci Fi or serious Fantasy ( LOTR, Dune )
I like plots to have multiple threads and stories within stories, complexity in characters and cultures.
A bit of 'light reading' just doesn't do it for me. I need to get involved.
As an aside to this I enjoyed Avatar. I know it's a 'Cowboys and Indians' plot and a bit puerile in that area but the culture and language that was built to support the film always keeps me amazed at how some writers can build a whole new civilisation that theoretically anyway might be feasible. Star Wars and Startrek have similar features which I enjoy. LOTR and Dune very much so.
