I'm sure I have more than 10 favorite authors which I would like to recommend as the'best', but I'm not too sure I'll be able to remember all of them during the course of this review, so I'm not going to promise any specific number of Authors, anyway, here goes.
At the No. 1 spot.
Richard Bach
As long as * Jonathan Livingstone Seagull* is out there Richard Bach will always be the best author around. Along with other books like Illusions, One, Bridge across forever and other similar philosophical and love stories, no one can beat his style and simplicity.
Michael Crichton
A completely different author from Richard Bach, a much more intense, fast paced and action packed story writer, with very well researched and unique books, each books has its own appeal and individuality. Jurassic park, Timeline, Rising Sun, Terminal Man are a few of his best sellers.
John Grisham
If court room drama is something that appeals to you, then his books are a definite page turner, with stuff like The Partner, The street Lawyer, The Firm, The Client, The Pelican Brief, you can't miss.
Douglas Adams
Probably best known for the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, the trilogy which consists of 4 books, So Long And Thanks For All The Fish, Mostly Harmless and Life, The Universe And Everything being the other 3. A unique and extremely humorous author unlike any other out there.
Jeffery Archer
Kane and Able, Shall we tell the President, and several short stories to his name, an excellent author when it comes to writing about business men and spies.
Arthur C Clarke
Probably the best Science fiction author around best known for his Space Odyssey Collection, definitely not to be missed if you enjoy Science Fiction.
J R R Tolkein
The author that I personally feel was the inspiration to J K Rowling and her Harry Potter series, the writer of The Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings series, is an amazing fantasy writer.
J K Rowling
Excellent light reading in the Harry Potter series which brings back a lot of childhood memories of the days when one loved Enid Blyton stories.
Ayn R and
The Fountain Head and Atlas Shrugged, immense books that are capable of changing your entire outlook on life if you are able to understand them. Definitely recommended for an older audience.
Isaac Asimov
Best loved for the foundation series, where he narrates the story of two Robots, somewhere far in Earth's future. Very addictive books for science fiction readers.
Well that makes it a full 10 authors so I'm going to quit while I'm ahead.
