Stephen R. Donaldson.
George R. R. Martin.
And if you are a python fan, Terry Jones wrote the novelized version of a computer game created by Douglas Adams. So a collaboration of sorts.

Jack in the box -

Jack in the box -
Anne Rice - another very good author 👍
Piers Anthony - I remember I had a bunch of his paper backs (yardsale collection score 😏)
You are well read Ms , thank you for sharing ☺👍
Steal away. 😚

My Dear{Trust} - Piers Anthony's Xanth series is The Best way to take a break between heavier, more serious or dramatic reads. Nothing like a well written story loaded with bad puns and shocking panties to clear the mind! LOL

Jack in the box - Agreed. 😏

A rose's sir​(dom male) - Man I vividly rember my first time reading Steinbeck and Tolkien! I was hooked from the get go.

Jack in the box -
Thank you for sharing, I was the same way ☺

Invisible​(sub female) - My favorites have been listed, but no one's mentioned Neil Gaiman. He's top of my list. Y'all should read American Gods or at least Ocean at the End of the Lane.

Jack in the box -
And so I shall Ms, thank you ☺⚘

A Cloud​(sub female){Owned} - 'The God of Small Things' by Arundhati Roy. This is one of my faves with amazing description that speaks to the senses. Love!
