Go on, make your choice.

I love Robin Hobb, particularly her Farseer Trilogy and the Golden Fool trilogy.
One of my favourite books is The God Delusion.
I also love a good biography, or autobiography. The one that I've enjoyed the most so far though is on Geoffrey Robertson.
Diana Gabaldon, the series starting with Cross Stitch

I googled this to see if it was a series on embroidery.Originally Posted by Kaktus

Totally understandable with a title like 'Cross Stitch', this was the first book in the series which in the U.S. was called The Outlander. No idea why the title was changed for Australia.
It is actually called 'The Outlander Series' with 7 books so far, the 8th is supposed to come out early 2013. Long time waiting since the last book, but it will be totally worth it.
Anne McCaffrey, and specifically, the DragonRiders of Pern series.

Well, since you asked -
I have been seen with Jude the Obscure,
I sometimes wander Far From The Madding Crowd,
Though I do not have a Pair of Blue Eyes,
I await The Return Of The Native,
I don't think The Mayor Of Casterbridge was returned on the weekend,
But I will not finish Tess Of The Durbevilles.

- would have to be my favourite author, but there are a few others, like Richard Adams for Watership Down.

CC, Image editing OK.
Wilbur Smith - started reading his stuff as a teenager in the late '70s / early '80s
Steve
Hard to name just one as I like a couple of genre's but if pushed I'd say Cormac McCarthy
Blood Meridian
No Country for Old Men
The Road

Oh! And if you're into war description, or just war, or just description, try Bernard Cornwell's "Sharpe" series.
The opening pages of "Sharpe's Waterloo" would make you a pacifist forever.

Belief it or not, Ben Elton wrote a book about war that "would make you a pacifist forever."
But for this thread, you can only have one favourite author, so Am's quote and this post don't exist.
To specify, I could not have
Agatha Christie
Stephen King
