Christopher Brookmyre for me. There has only been 1 book of his that I struggled with to start (Bedlam) but I love his Tartan Noir style.

For fantasy (which I do enjoy along with a bit of scifi)

Robin Hobb
The great Terry Pratchett (I know he has died but if you haven't read before then really worth a try)

Margaret Atwood

Christopher Fowler

Diane Chamberlain

David Sedaris

Rose Tremain

Andrea Levy

Anne Tyler

Sarah Waters

Heather O'Neill (she has only written two so far, but I just know I'll love whatever she coimes upo with next)

So many already mentioned! William Boyd, Sebastian Faulks, Margaret Forster, Penelope Lively, Ian McEwan, Val McDermid.

Forgot Ken Follett too just got into Mo Hayder lately. Also enjoy Elly Griffiths and always go back to Rumer Godden....

I can't help but wonder if all the people mentioning Stephen King have read Rose Madder, Dreamcatcher or The Tommyknockers!

Ursula Le Guin.

at Derelict.

Ted Allbeury, though I doubt that there are many recent books

Also Gerald Seymour

Ellie Griffiths - crime drama set in deepest darkest Norfolk- loved all of them so far. Agatha Christie. Penelope Lively.

Mitch Albom
Kate Atkinson
Philippa Gregory
Gervase Phinn

Also Sue Townsend and Douglas Adams but sadly we'll never have any more from them. Eoin Colfer's attempt just didn't do it for me.

Margaret Atwood
Ursula le Guin
Bill Bryson
