Re: Your Favourite Author(s)? by sugabelle: 11:11pm On Apr 07, 2009 |
wow. tuff question. I like a bit of everything: classics, romance, horror, fantasy etc. My favourite author has to be Sidney Sheldon, dont know why. But his books were very satisfying when I used to be into novels.Ken Follet, Thomas Harris and Charles Dickens are three guys I could never say no to if I saw any of their books.!! |

This is a simple Quetion but difficult to answer. i have i lot of them but i will have to say that any work from Mario Puzo, John Grisham,Sidney Sheldon, Jeffrey Archer (to mention but a few) are always irresistible. About my best from them.The God father,The Client, Tell me your dreams, The eleventh commandment repectively |

Tom Clancy is my best Author, Other Authors I enjoy reading are Robert Ludlum, Frederick Forsyth, Most of their books are on Espionage, Subterfuge and Fictional Political Unrest My best book by Tom Clancy is a big battle between Executive Orders and Red Storm Rising I used to read John Grisham, Sidney Sheldon earlier in life but its not really my thing Nowadays I read Biographies, Obama's 2 books, Richard Branson, Roman Abramovich, Duncan Byanantyne, |

James Patterson - writes Thrillers and I have several reasons why I love his writing but I love his 'Alex Cross' and his 'Michael Bennett' series best. Sidney Sheldon - I love his writing in suspense. I have several books that I love but 'Tell me your dreams', 'Nothing Lasts forever' and 'If tomorrow comes' are some of my best. |

Danielle steel is a literary phenomenom, ive read many books , from harold Robins , jackie collins , sidney sheldon, koontz, agtha kristie,sheldon, grisham, name it. danielle steel is one of the best, there is a smooth reading style to her writing , which makes it easy to forget the time and keep flipping the pages. I love her books. |
