No offense, but I will now assume that I can safely avoid the other authors on your list.

From 6-9th grade im ashamed to admit, I read a fuckton of Dean Koontz books, and I figured out that I had read every book he had every published as of 2000.

I wish I would have picked a good author or something haha sheesh.

Isaac Asimov (fiction only)

[/ QUOTE ]

I shied away from saying Asimov because I'm pretty sure I missed a short story somewhere or other, but I've read a whole lot of his books. Not any of his nonfiction, though.

20 years ago I could honestly say Stephen King, but he just kept on writing, and I stopped liking what I was reading.
