Neal Asher

Okay, I'm officially a fan. I'd mentioned reading Cowl earlier this week. I just finished The Skinner this morning, and have started Gridlinked. This guy's not only really really good, he's also capable of incredible variations in style. Cowl is a very nifty time-travel story, The Skinner is a tale of adventure/political intrigue, and it looks as if Gridlinked is going to go the hard-boiled route (not that the books are as easily pigeonholed as I make it sound). He's shown a damned fine talent for both characterization and plotting in both the novels I've finished.

I know I'm relatively late to the party on this one, but I'm still glad I finally started reading him. Definitely an author to keep an eye on.
