I'm really into The Dresden Files by Jim Butcher at the moment.

It's hard to answer this question because I believe there are several talented writers and not one!  :azn:

My all time favorite writer is Haruki Murakami.
I also enjoy Lawrence Wright, Mark Bowden, Umberto Eco, Masha Gessen, F Scott Fitzgerald, John Lee Anderson, H.G. Wells, Toni Morrison, and Claire Watkins

Yeah, he's the one behind the Artemis Fowl books, right ?
Those were pretty fun to read !

Has he wrote anything else as good ?

William Gibson hands down. He even has a little bit of a naturist idea in one of his books, an orbital hotel with pool where's it normal not to wear clothes.
Dance or die

Giovanni Guareschi, the author of "Don Camillo and Peppone".
He has also some naturist scenes in his books, for example when Don Camillo bathes nude (as it would be normal in this days) in the river nearby the village and someone is pinching his robe.
Naturism and being naked are a human`s rights and a human`s nature.

I agree, Stephen king is one of the best!

I picked up Pale Fire by Vladimir Nabokov.  I think I've also picked up a new favorite saying from it: "The lost glove is happy"  :rotfl2:

I can see why he is considered one of the greats.

It is not easy to answer this question; I read a lot, especially thriller books and the writing styles are very different but all engaging.
I love Scandinavian literature, especially Arne Dahl, but I also like some French writers like J.C. Grangè or Ian Manook.

Probably James S.A Corey or Cixin Liu
