Neil Gaiman. The man can write novels, YA novels, graphic novels, children’s books. And they all have such well crafted worlds that you just want to lose yourself in them.
I also think Neal Stephenson and Corey Doctorow deserve WAY more attention than they get.
I'd second all three.
Neil Gaiman is absolutely one of my favorite authors and from what I've seen, a pretty great human being as well.
American Gods and Neverwhere are classics. Neil Gaiman's place on this list is assured and well deserved.
Absolutely. Anansi boys is my personal favorite of his, but I think highly of all his books.
I love it too, but American Gods is it's wellspring.
Honestly, Stardust is probably my favorite of his.
