I've always enjoyed Jean Plaidy's historical novels and learned quite a lot from them. For a light read Marian Keyes is great.

[SparklyKid]

Ben Elton and/or Bill Bryson

Exactly the same as Naomi, Charlotte Bronte, and just for one book which I have read over and over again since childhood. In fact my son recently bought me a special version last Christmas. Beautiful leather binding and gold leaved.

Daphni du Maurier would come second.

Terry Pratchett's Discworld series is absolutely brilliant. I think Terry Pratchett is my favourite author but Emile Zola is very good too.

Iain (M) Banks is a great choice! Prolific and was a good egg

[Atheist]

Jenny Tatt.

[Toorak]

Orhan Pamuk

W.Somerset Maugham for his short stories.
