I'm trying to think of my favourite authors. Have decided they are - not necessarily in order:

Steven King

Dick Francis

Susan Howatch

Denis Wheatley

Nicci French

Jean Plaidy/Victoria Holt (sad I know)

What's all yours?

Interesting topic - here's my contribution:

Dick Francis (snap!)

Maeve Binchy

Terry Pratchett

P D James

Agatha Christie

Ian Rankin

Nevil Shute

Also not in any particular order. As you can see I enjoy crime novels! There are many others, but I decided to restrict myself to the first few I thought of.

Glad there's someone else still up at this time of night jabber. Interesting selection. I love Dick Francis though I don't generally like crime books.

Jeffrey Archer

E V Thomson

Lilly Baxter

Iris Gower

Anna Jacobs

Lesley Pearse

Ruth Hamilton as hers are set in Bolton and I know all the places that she talks about.

Anna Jacobs starts off in England then ends up in western Australia when people where just beginning to settle there Wendell you might find them interesting.

Love Philippa Gregory too - got all her wideacre books. I got a mixture too - from pulp fiction to classics (more of the former than the latter unfortunately :d )

I love science fiction too.
