I've been enjoying James Alan Gardner for the last couple of years.
Good stories with some good humor here and there.
Start with Expendable. The books are all standalone but interconnected and
reading them in order is "mostly" neccesary because there is a continuity to
them.

Commitment Hour
Expendable
Vigilant
Hunted
Ascending

I like William Browning Spencer. The man is insane.
Resume With Monsters
Zod Wallop
The Return Of Count Electric

Phillip Pullman = excellent fantasy
The Golden Compass
The Subtle Knife
The Amber Spyglass

And so much more!

Wait a sec!
Its *your* brain.
Can't you take a little responsibility?
