hi Ursula! I like all the authors on your list except for David Eddings (though never read Holdstock either).

my favorite authors are -

Connie Willis, Iain Banks, Steven Brust, Roberta Gellis, Diana Wynne Jones, Sarah Bird, Terry Pratchett, Nancy Kress, and Barbara Paul. Well, that's some of them, the ones I thought of off the top of my head

And I probably like Ursula LeGuin as much as most of those on the list, too:)
