Favourite sci-fi/fantasy books or authors?

[Eldros]

I also remembered China Miéville, who has a really interesting style. He writes both sci-fi and fantasy, and some people would probably call his work “New Weird.” Embassytown is a pretty great book, and Perdido Street Station was a big success too.
He also wrote a book with Keanu Reeves, but that one wasn’t quite as successful as his solo books...
