Way back in December of 2011 (and again every other December since), we’ve taken a look at the authors I have read the most, dating back to high school.  This year, since I’ve far surpassed my reading output of any year on record, I thought it would be nice to take a deeper dive into those books I’ve read through August. Since our last check-in, I’ve read an additional 60 books from 54 different authors. There shouldn’t be much movement over the past 2 years, but it’s time to take another look and see if my “favorite” authors have changed much in that time span.  Today, we finish things off with the author I’ve read the most, with 17 entries.

My most prolific author first came to my attention in 1998, when I read Halloween Rain, her first entry, along with Christopher Golden, into the Buffy The Vampire Slayer series of books based on the television show.  12 of her 17 entries, all of which are tie-ins to either Buffy or Angel, were read between 1998 and 2002.  After a 9 year lay off, she returned to me attention in 2011 with Carnival of Souls.

Another 5 years went by, before she returned again with 2 books in 2016, once in 2018, and then one earlier this year.  Seeing as I have depleted my backlog of Buffy novels, she’s likely to stay put for the foreseeable future, unless someone re-releases these cheaply on the Kindle.
