My Top Ten Authors Reading List

When I was around ten or eleven, my father gave me a copy of John Carter of Mars by Edgar Rice Burroughs. It was the first time I had ever read a novel. It was with Burrough’s Mars series that I obtained my love for reading fantasy novels. These author’s novels later influenced me to begin writing my own stories. If any of you ever get the chance, I encourage you to read some or all of their works. Out of all of the author’s works I have read, I would have to say that Robert E. Howard’s Conan and Edger Rice Burrough’s Mars series are still my favorites.
