Mine are David Gemmell, Chris Bunch and Jane Feather.

Wasnt David Gemmell the author who wrote about the Barbarian with the butterfly axe?

Terry Pratchett

I find that very few people here in Singapore have NOT read him, which is utterly surprising and and great loss to all who are not aware of him.

You'd be surprised that 2 of my friends, who are Singaporeans... adore's him and love his books.

That's great!

Pratchett was the bestselling UK author by far, untill JK Rowling came along. The funny thing is that he is the most obscure bestseller there is. I read an interview with him recently on this fact. For some reason the world is divided in people who have tons of his books and people who have never read anyting of him.

My boyfriend still adores Pratchett. He says its different from JK Rowling and JRR Tolkien. Though he likes all 3, he finds Pratchett amusing and funny. He was relating to me the other day, about some story on Making Money. How a guy in a golden suit was sent to the Royal Mint or something. I think he was head postman...

It'll be Jasper Fforde for me. He's brilliant. After that comes John Connolly and possibly for non-fiction, I'll go with Giles Milton.

My favourite author is Paolo Coelho - I have read all of his novels so far and I simply can't get enough of his writing style. Any other Coelho fans out there?
