A few of the authors I love in the fantasy genre are Neil Gaiman, Patricia A. McKillip and Garth Nix (in no particular order). Why I love them ? I love the style with which Patricia A. McKillip writes. Reading the language just makes me sigh and it gives off a kind of fairy-tale feeling. And all 3 of them have the ability to create absolutely diverse worlds and wonderfully lovable characters that you want to root for. With a few very rare exceptions, every time I have picked up one of their books, I never want the story to end. And when it does, I just want to read it again. What about you ? Who are your favourite authors?

Neil Gaiman is such a genius! I haven't read any of the other's stuff, but I'm adding them to the mental TBR pile.

Hi-just hopping by to say hello
ReplyDeleteStopping by from the Hop! I read Frankenstein about 13 years ago. I was on a classic "horror" kick. I need to reread it - the details are fuzzy now, but I remember it was excellent. I read Dracula around that time too.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
Just popping in via the hop to say hi! I see you won Beautiful Creatures, hop you like it, I thought it was great! Happy Friday:)
