Yeah, Robert Jordan, Salvatore, Weiss...etc. Any fantasy book nowadays is basically based upon Tolkien's work, but I never knew, did Tolkien actually come up with this, or just one of the first to publish a series of novels about it? I should check that out... |

I like both of them, but I love Dean Koontz. I like his writing style better than Stephen King's. |

Oh yeah, forgot to add in my 2 cents, R.A. Salvatore, Anne Rice, but mostly, I just pick up books here and there at random and just read whatever I can, Im hoping on checkin some Tom Clancy soon.
As for really good authors, I would say my favorite writer is Gore Vidal, the way he writes inspires me in every single way as an aspiring journalist. |
