<font color=orange>I'm not going to give you titles, just Authors (well maybe a few titles).
Fantasy - J.R.R. Tolkien, George Martin and Robin Hobbs (you can read on this forum which books to get).
Sci/Fi - Robert Heinlien (he wrote Starship Trooper and The Moon is a Harsh Mistress also a few others), Asimov and Fredrick Pohl also come to mind.
Action/Adventure - Clive Cussler (any of the Dirk Pitt books, they are all great!), Tom Clancy (not sure I like any of his newer stuff, but his older stuff was great!) Alister Mclean also wrote some good books (Guns of Navrrone, Force Ten from Navorrone and Where Eagles Dare were all made into movies). Michael Crichton (He writes about everything and has had several books turned into movies Jurasic Park is one of them. Another one that I finished not long ago and couldn't put down is Timeline. He is also the genius behind the TV show ER.
Westerns - (I know not, a lot of you would never dream of reading westerns, but they are a change of pace!) Luke Short (Riders of the Purple Sage, a classic)
McMurty ( He wrote the Lonesome Dove series, which became movies on TV), Louis L'amor ( my personal favorite, never read one of his books I didn't like, he was not a just a western writer either. Light reading though, you could read one in a night. Also a lot of his books have been made into movies for TV.)
General Fiction - Ernest Hemingway has always been one of my favorites (especially For Whom the Bell Tolls. This is a must read!), Steinbeck and Faulkner.
War - Jeff Shaara. He wrote two books about the Civil War called Killer Angels and Gods and Generals. They are written about the Battle of Gettysburg and the
and the events that preceded the battle of Gettysburg. They are totally awesome.
As you can see, I like to read a lot of different things, just not Fantasy and Sci/fi. Hope this helps! </font>
