I re-read favourites regularly. The authors most likely to be re-read are:
- Sharon Lee & Steve Miller, separately and together. I re-read their Liaden Universe books (all 19 or 20 of them!) just about yearly.
- C.J. Cherryh, the Foreigner books, usually just the last half dozen before a new one comes out.
- Wen Spencer, whenever I can come up with a good excuse, which doesn't take much!
- Nathan Lowell, whenever I want to just relax and enjoy a good _story_. His books were mostly oral originally, and they have that character throughout.
- Elizabeth Moon, though not all of her later books. I buy them all, but seem to be re-reading only her older books.
- Lois McMaster Bujold - Vorkosiverse and some of her fantasy.
- Georgette Heyer - once every dozen years or so. I tend to re-read one every six months or so, and parse them out to savour.
- Patrick O'Brian, his Aubrey/Maturin series is a favourite, especially as audio books read by Patrick Tull.
- David Weber, though I find myself skimming the interminable military details, but still loving the stories.
- Kerry Greenwood, whose Phryne Fisher books are wonderfully entertaining even after I know how it all ends.
Other books or series by authors whose overall works I might not include here, such as John Ringo, whose Empire of Man series co-written with David Weber, is a definite periodic re-read. But not the rest
