Hmm gotta think...haven't read books properly for years...
umm:

Robin Hobb (assassin's trilogy)
Terry Brooks
ummm...someone else who i can't remember at the moment

Laurell K Hamilton (everything )
Christopher Paolini (Eragon )
Elizabeth Haydon (Rhapsody, Destiny, Prophecy)
and, uh... countless other vampire romance authors

R.A. Salvatore (Forgotten Realms - i.e. Legend of Drizzt, Sellswords and War of the Spider Queen)
Ed Greenwood (Forgotten Realms - i.e. Elminster Series)
And Richard A. Knaak (Blizzard - various Diablo and Warcraft books)
Not to forget, Terry Pratchett (Discworld)

I like books that make me think or puts daily event in a different way, Terry Pratchett does just this... in a not so much funny, but very entertaining way. Don't expect to laugh out loud, but I guarantee you will giggle allot.

The first three authors I mentioned are all fantasy writers. Very good novels (they always make me want more).

her works are about a female vampire and her love troubles, if im not mistaken


Oh sorry for the duplicate thread, requesting merger any mod?

It's more of my immaturity.
Well, some of it still exists.
But I guess I've never really gotten into it.
Now, I got a sudden urge to reread it.

i luv hilari bell, eoin colfer, christopher paolini, david klass, and sonya hartnett...at least at the top of my head lol can you tell i read a lot?

Chuck Palanuik he is responsible for Fight Club. And my favorite books Choke and Lullaby
Max Brooks because anyone who makes a zombie survival guide is good in my book.
Koushun Takami responsibe for the great novel Battle Royale which been made int a manga and an film.
Futaro Yamada responsible for the ripe off of Romeo & Julliet ,The Kouga Ninja Scrolls which been adapted into an manga an anime and an film.

Edit: also Neil Gaiman i noticed that and i forgot to add him he was great with making parts of spawn and 1602 and other fantasy titles.

I loved Airborn as well but the sequel was bad compared to it. His silver wing books weren't bad either, He's not my favourite but i read quite a few of his books.

I like Piers Anthony's Xanth series. I'm only up to book 28 out of 33. Great series if you enjoy puns.
