JRR TOlkien has to be my favourite, simply because he wrote "Leaf by Niggle," by far the best of any of his works... I also like Terry Pratchett (met him twice!!) and Greg Bear. George Orwell wrote som e good stuff, and John Christopher, of course, especially The Prince in Waiting Trilogy... peter Beagle's Last Unicorn has to be my favourite book, simply because all the character's have exactly the same problem, but deal with it in such different ways...
Wow theres a book I read a long time ago, in galaxy far far away....
Indeed the book Running Man is far far superior to the film, as books generally are. My brother has a copy of it, so I think I'll borrow it off him and read it again.
My fav author however is Anne Macaffery, I love all the Dragons of Pern books she wrote!

Thomas Harris ( only written 4 books in 20 years but Silence of The Lambs and Hannibal are master-pieces - quite superb)
( he invented Hannibal Lector after all - You've got to be pretty genius to come up with a charecter like that - who was also voted Holywoods biggest villan too)
I'm also a big fan of Douglas Adams and Hitchikers guide to the Galaxy
Hilarious Books
Can't wait for the films
