Sorry about dumbing this list down a bit, but I had to lighten the load a bit.

My choice is doubled on here because I didn't see it come up and chose it again.

All Suckers... Imagine not considering J.R.R.Tolkien.

Tolkien is a great choice too.

Most of these choices adorn the books on the shelves we place in our homes to demonstrate that we are well read.

If you want to know what sort of books a person really likes, reach under his pillow.

Voted : Fyodor Dostoevsky
No other fiction author comes even close.....

Voted : Fyodor Dostoevsky
There are alot of great writers on this list, and it is impossible to objectively state who the best wrtier of all time is. So i chose Fyodor Dostoyevsky, becuase he certainly is one of the greatest.

Voted : Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
How could you forget Goethe in this list. The man who influenced everything and everyone in the centuries after him.

Voted : Charles Dickens
I think his character development and portrayal is amazing, as is his conviction against deceipt, treachery, corruption and all forms of cruelty. Also, his sympathy to the down-trodden brings life to his books. Plus, the plots are intricate and full of adventure, and he was not limited by his scope of expertise.
