I read and like a lot of different kinds of books. I'm a big fan of SF and related genres. I love Jane Austen. Among my all-time favorite authors is Nevil Shute but Dan Jenkins runs him a close race, as does Michael Shaara (but not Shaara's son, Jeff). More favorites: Philip K. Dick, Robert A. Heinlein, William Gibson (Pattern Recognition is a truly wonderful book and you don't need to know or care about SF to find it fascinating.), Robertson Davies, Donald Hamilton, John D. MacDonald, Leo Tolstoy, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Mario Vargas Llosa, Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler, Michael Connelly, James Lee Burke, Harper Lee, J. G. Ballard, Terry Bisson, Brian Moore, Farley Mowat, Joe Haldeman, Ian Frazier, Martin Amis, John M. Ford, James Ellroy, Joan Didion, John Gregory Dunne, Thomas M. Disch, Gustav Hasford, Michael Herr, Georgette Heyer (but not so much the mysteries), L. Rust Hills, Ernie Kovacs, Mell Lazarus. And lots more.
