I have to say my favorite is Lois McMaster Bujold. I only discovered her this past year and have devoured book after book. I finally forced myself to slow down and save the last few in the Vorkosigan series (and Cryoburn in 2010) and the last in the Sharing Knife, Horizon. I love her wit, humor and the subtle way (or not so subtle) she incorporates some social issue, most of which are as relevant today as they were when the books were written over the past 30 years.

I often wonder how many other 'jewels' of authors are out there I have yet to encounter. So, thanks for your list, I will have to check them out!
