Haven't read her more recent ones, apparently she has gotten more religious.

Prachett every time one comes out.

I tried Terry Goodkind and thoroughly enjoyed the Wizards First Second and Third Rules but lost it as the series went on.

One I forgot to list, and one of the best, is David Brin - well worth looking up.

Dan Brown (Digital Fortress, Deception Point, Da Vinci Code, Angels and Demons.)

Anne Rice (I just LOVE the vampire novels!)

J.K. Rowling (Everyone knows what SHE wrote :))

Eoin Colfer (Artemis Fowl, but I only liked the first four.)

Franklin W. Dixon (The Hardy Boys. I prefer the originals and the Case Files though.)
