who is your favorite auther

"Books? You want books?! Ha! We've got books on hairy otters, on onions and on mars! All the fungus you could care for, plus, three triple zillion stars. We've got books on flossing teeth, plus three books on tossing sheep. If we spent our lives just counting books, we'd never get to sleep!" -Leopold the Librarian ("The Great Wishy Woz")

At this time I would say Stephen R. Lawhead.
“Among the attributes of God, although they are all equal, mercy shines with even more brilliancy than justice.” —Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra

By the way, Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood, was a racist.

Right now I would have to say Ted Dekker. Frank Peretti is a close second. I didn't really like House (they're collaborative novel), though.

Just last week I started re-reading Lord of the Rings. It is so much better than I remember it! However, the fact that I was ten the first time I read the books and couldn't follow them very well probably has something to do with me enjoying them more now. :yes:

As far as fiction goes, I'm a Ray Bradbury fan.

For Ted Dekker fans out there, his new book "Skin," comes out April 3.

While I have many favorites. Right now I would say Brock and Bodie Thoene because I am reading their Zion Covenant series and have several more series written by them to read.
