Who do you consider a Great Author of the last 50 years or so (first well-known work after 1970)? I'd like to get a feel for who's who in modern literature. Any language/culture. Fiction only.

American Gods and Neverwhere are classics. Neil Gaiman’s place on this list is assured and well deserved.

Absolutely. Anansi boys is my personal favorite of his, but I think highly of all his books.

I love it too, but American Gods is it’s wellspring.

Honestly, Stardust is probably my favorite of his.
