I agree with you son. Fiction does have the open sense that some information is not real, but it does give a sense of danger and adventure.

I find fiction more "exciting" to read because an author is able to express a fantasy incorporating ideas without the constrain of whether it is true information or false, not implying that non-fiction is uninteresting. In fiction writing, your imagination takes control and gets your mind jogging so you think creative ideas of what happens next because you can never know what happens next(in a fiction).
