‘Your’ best authors ever. Not mine.

The Book Depository recently had a poll on people’s ‘best authors ever’. Never backward in coming forward with my opinions, I voted for my top five. The results were out yesterday and can be seen here.

How can Evelyn Waugh be missing from such a list? And who on earth is George R R Martin? Don’t tell me; I just looked him up. Good grief.
