Author Recommendations

[pirate]

Just been reading the Iain Banks memorial thread and was surprised someone hasnt even heard of him.

so i am looking for authors work we should seek out and read.

i will start with some obvious sf ones (as banks wrote straight fiction and sf)

Robert Heinlein
Isaac Asimov
Alastair Reynolds

I'm currently reading the mortal instruments series. I don't think you would like it though

Wife reads Tess Gerritsen

Not a political statement but Jeffrey Archer books are always a good read as are James Patterson books

i dont read james patterson books. I am put off by the fact he doesnt write most of them. For a lot of his books he comes up with a plot outline them someone else writes it. You know which ones becuase his and another authors name appears on the cover
