My favorite authors so far are Karen Hancock, Sharon Hinck, Wayne Thomas Batson, Bryan Davis, and L.B. Graham.

Favorites in no particular order

1) Andrew Peterson (Because he's my 'undiscovered' favorite)
2) J R R Tolkien (because, well...duh.)
3) C S Lewis (the same)
4) L B Graham (on principle...mostly)
5) Jonathan Rogers (wonderful)
6) Wayne Thomas Batson (because I read him first)
7) Kathy Tyres (wait...she's sci-fi)
9) Patrick Carman (Elyon books, love)
10) Donita K Paul (again, on principle)
11) Ted Dekker (The Circle, minus Green)
12) Anne Elisabeth Stengl (best new Christian Fantasy I've read)
13) Sharon Hinck (haven't read all her books, but still good)
14) John White (Classic fantasy author, my sister read these to me when I was little)

(Out of curiousity...what do you mean by a favorite 'on principle'? * can't figure it out *)

LOL For Graham, I mean that he is a wonderfully talented writer, and I think all serious fantasy readers--and certainly every single writer of Christian Fantasy--should read his books. I will probably own all the BotB series one day and make my children read them. However, I don't see myself reading them again.

Paul, on the other hand, I love because she is one of the first Christian Fantasy authors I ever read, but not really one of the best writers.

So, I love them, and they are favorites, but more on principle than anything else.

1. J.R.R Toklein
2. C.S.Lewis
3. Robert Treskillard
4. Frank Peretti
