It is time once again to take a look at the authors I have read the most, dating back to high school. This year, I’m once again on pace to set a new record for books read in a year, so I thought it would be nice to take a deeper dive into those books I’ve read through August of this year. Since our last check-in, I’ve read an additional 114 books, so there should be some movement over the past two years. Without further ado, it’s time to take another look and see if my “favorite” authors have changed much over the years. We continue today with the three authors I’ve read thirteen times, one more than two years ago.
The House of Last Resort – Christopher Golden
Christopher Golden
The prolific author first entered my bookshelf in 1998, thanks to a Buffy the Vampire Slayer tie-in, but his latest was an original concept.
Brad Meltzer
I was originally exposed to Meltzer through his comics work for DC, eventually trying out his prose work in 2002, when I read both The Millionaires and The First Counsel. Since then, he has been a pretty steady presence as new work is released, last seen in 2022 with The Lightning Rod.
Bravo – Greg Rucka
Greg Rucka
I first became aware of Greg Rucka through his prestigious comic book work. In 1999, I read the first entry in his Atticus Kodiak series, Keeper. I followed up with the next three entries the following year, bringing my up to date with his work. From that point on, I picked up each of his original works as they were released, including three more entries in the Kodiak series, three novels based on his Queen & Country comic book series, one standalone work, and, most recently, the two books in the Jad Bell series.
