I love books about advanced technologies that aren't real (you know, made up in those books). Not sure if that is just science fiction or not, but I love books that talk about technologies that don't exist and are fascinating. Please give me some names of books that kept you interested, immersed and amazed.
Thank you

Many of the Cosmere books have some very interesting fictional technology. In Stormlight Archive for example there are these things called fabrials that are powered by "spirits" and can allow for things like telecommunication and air conditioning. Mistborn uses metal based technology that can power airships. The best part is, these different magic systems exist on different planets in the same universe. Some stories even involve travelers from these different planets interacting with each other.
