Thread: Who is your Favourite Author and why?

J.L Bourne is awesome...he writes zombie books.

Anything by Stephen King, James Herbert, David Ambrose.

Memory of demons
Misery
The fog
The Dark

Look into them :-)

I love EVERY Feminist out there who comes on here writing her 'fantaseez' of world domination, perpetual victimhood, gender-based wage-gap, and compares babies to snot.

The last book I couldn't put down was Cell by Stephen King. Watch it before the film is made and released later this year (if all goes to plan).

My favourite author is Agatha Christie. Nobody else writes mysteries as good as hers.

If you like Douglas Adams, you might enjoy Terry Pratchett's 'Discworld' series which is pretty funny. The first one is 'The Colour of Magic', but you don't really have to read them in order.

YOu might also like Jasper Fforde's books, his 'Thursday Next' series is very funny and offbeat, the first one is 'The Eyre Affair'. His Jack Spratt series is also good, the first one is The Big Over Easy. His books are rather like Alice in Wonderland for adults.

My husband's favourite author is Clive Cussler, who writes adventure stories often to do with sunken ships, hidden treasure etc, he has written loads of books in different series, but you don't have to read them in any particular order, my husband says each book can stand alone.

He also really likes Dan Brown, the Da Vinci Code etc.

James Patterson. His books have humor in them and they're fast moving and seem like they could really happen. Even his sci-fi books are that way.

I love Leslie Thomas. I read for escapism, and his books provide just that. They are fast, they are fun, they are exciting, they are hillarious, they are smutty, they are erotic and they are adventurous.
