I'm looking for some recommendations for programming books for my son, who is 18 and showing a real talent for it. He has a unique way of expressing himself due to his autism and doesn't share much about his interests, so I can't just ask him what he wants. I'd like to find something engaging he might enjoy, especially since Christmas is around the corner. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

If you're looking for more options, the FAQ section often has a solid list of books too! Just look for the wiki link; it’s usually really helpful. Your son is likely to find something engaging there as well!
Just out of curiosity, how old is he? It might help narrow down the suggestions a bit.
He's 18.
There's a great list of programming books categorized by topic that I compiled a while back. You can check it out for some ideas! It might have just what your son would find interesting. Let me know if you need help with anything specific!
Thank you for the suggestion!
Your list seems really comprehensive, definitely better than some of the usual FAQs I’ve seen.
Thanks, I will check that out!
