John Irving – his work just keeps getting better and better.
Brian Jacques – I’ve been reading the Redwall series since 1988 and see no reason to stop now.
Douglas Adams
Jane Austen
L.M. Montgomery – Her books are like old friends; I end up re-reading them about once a year.
I love “Good Omens” by Terry Pratchett & Neil Gaiman. It’s hysterical.
I like the Ender saga a lot, too – Orson Scott Card is an intense experience (his “Sarah” is very good as well).
Those are probably my favorites, but there are plenty of others I read regularly… it’s so hard to choose!
Nigel Tranter
Douglas Adams
Terry Pratchett
Roger Zelazny
Ian Fleming
Favorite Books:
Any well-written history of Scotland, Ireland or the USAF
Jack Whyte’s Camulod chronicles
Michael Stackpole’s X-Wing novels
Michael Crichton’s Timeline
Parke Godwin’s Firelord
So sorry if I started this thread in the wrong forum!
Does anybody remember Secatary Hawkins ? I know the secatary was misspelled, but I’m not sure if this is correct. These books were a series kind of like the Hardy Boys, but set in the last century, A neigbor of mine had many of them when I was a kid and I loved them, then we moved and I never saw them again:( I would love to find out if anybody else ever heard of them, and could remember the authors name!
