Well, you might want to give the Bean books a try. I thought they were pretty so-so, but other people like them. Or just flip through your dad's collection and see what catches your fancy. Card is a good writer, but he can be hit and miss.
For me, Western fandoms basically means "not anime, manga, or Japanese video games". So all the fandoms based on TV shows or movies produced in North America, Europe, or what-have-you are "Western fandoms" in my book. Er, is that strange?
