I want to add Moorcock too for nostalgia's sake, but I haven't read anything of his in forever and can't remember much at all.

Hum, been digging Brandon Sanderson and Jim Butcher the last few years, on the more fantasy front.

I love Peter F. Hamilton for sci-fi. He always seems to write about topics that really interest me. And his words are loaded with amazing characterization and depth.

That's all I can think of for now.

Don't know if anybody heard about this guy, but there's this Canadian author named William Bell. He made all these stories which are absolutely fascinating. Google him. Maybe read one of his books. They're pretty cool.

2128371 Aah! Philip Pullman! I knew I was missing someone on my list!

2128447 Ooh! I like Shakespeare too! (so much I always miss when making lists!)

2128243 I don't really have a favorite writer .
But if Tom Clancy was in charge of the stories for all of the games with his name on them he wouldn't even have time for the essentials of life, sleep, water, food, saluting the American flag 6 times a day (just joking, I'm Australian.)
