Can anyone recommend....

[Pogle]

Some new authors for me to read.

I started reading Terry Pratchett at the start of the year (and being totally anal I had to read them in the order they were written ) But i only have a few left to read - mainly due to being bench bound for a while.

I tried Robert Rankin - but he just annoyed me and anyway I hate sprouts.

I am currently trying Tom Holt - enjoyed Flying Dutch, but finding Faust among equals a bit dull.

Can any other Pratchett fans ( I know you're out there) recommend other authors they've enjoyed.

Thanks

I like Stephen King. Easy to read and there are about a million of them.

Asimov is classic and also has a lot of books.

Dick Francis is OK if you like that kind of thing, again there are a ton to read.

Between those 3 there are probably about 100 books.

As a pratchett fan, Robert Aspirin appealed to me, but the books are a bugger to get hold of

It seems almost daft to ask but I assume you’ve tried Douglas Adams? Apart from the obvious I found ‘Last chance to see’ to be one of the best books I’ve ever read.

Hard to recommend, as you may hate my preferences. However, I can thoroughly not recommend either Chris Ryan or Andy McNab. So much for first-hand experience leading to masterful tales. Higgins and Forsyth are a lot better. King is hit and miss since about 1985.

Lee Child

The Roger Red Hat series is good to. cant remember the author though!

Now we know where the cyber warrior tendencies come from. I bet you were in the TA and love anything with Ross Kemp in it.

Bravo Two Zero was alright, although such a simple read that if you took it away with you, it'll be finished before you even board an aircraft

Shouldn't you be looking for a job?

TA - No.

Ross Kemp - No. But I admire his Gangs thing, mainly because I think he's about one wrong word away from having a cap popped in his ass every time he meets a new gang.

I predict an "In Memory of Ross" tribute show any day now.
