Name authors you're so devoted (or addicted) to that you've read five or more books written by them.

My list:

C.S. Lewis
Chaim Potok (The Chosen, My Name is Asher Lev, etc.)
Bernard Cornwell (Richard Sharpe series of historical fiction, and a great Authur trilogy)
Robert Jordon (Wheel of Time - devoted WAY to much of my life to that series)
Terry Brooks (Shannara series - yes, I'm a fantasy junkie)

I'd like to add Tolkien and Virginia Woolf, but I confess I have not read nearly as much of them as I like to put on. :sigh:

I bet there are more that I can't quite think of at the moment. Garth Nix and Madeline L'Engle are close behind with 4 books read for each.
