Sure. 'The Magic Pudding' by Norman Lindsay is a great start. It's a fun and easy - to - read children's story that still has a lot of charm for adults. It's set in Australia and has unique characters.

For beginners, 'The Great Gatsby' is a good choice. It's not too long and has a very engaging story about wealth, love, and the American Dream in the 1920s. The writing style is beautiful and the characters are quite vivid.

'Hellblazer' is a good example. It follows the adventures of John Constantine, a cynical and often morally ambiguous magician. The stories are filled with dark magic, demons, and Constantine's attempts to navigate a world full of supernatural threats while also dealing with his own personal demons and addictions.

A lesser - known but really good dark fiction novel is 'The Haunting of Hill House' by Shirley Jackson. It's a story about a group of people who go to a supposedly haunted house to study it. The way Jackson builds up the sense of the unknown and the creeping horror is brilliant. You can feel the walls of the house closing in on the characters as the story progresses.

'The Song of Achilles' by Madeline Miller can be considered as well. It reimagines the relationship between Achilles and Patroclus in a way that is both tender and heart - breaking. It's not just a love story between two men, but also a story about heroism, loyalty, and the cost of war, all intertwined with their deep love for each other.

I recommend the following novels with ruthless protagonists: "The Emperor of the Netherworld" was a mythical cultivation novel. The Emperor of the Netherworld was ruthless and merciless.
