I'll narrow my choices down buy the books I will go out and buy THE DAY they come out:
1. Dark Days 2. Dante Valentine (although the series ended i read them three times - sob sob) 2. Black Dagger Brotherhood - J. R. Ward 3. Southern Vampire Series - Charlaine Harris 4. Rachel Morgan Series - Kim Harrison 5. Queen Betsy - MaryJanice Davidson 6. Immortals After Dark - Kresley Cole
Then there are my frivilous faves I can wait a bit for: 1. Dead End Dating Novels - Kimberly Rave 2. Signs of the Zodiac Series - Vicki Pettersson 3. Midnight Breed - Lara Adrian
And while I wait for the Next Dark Days book - I'm reading the Darkyn books. I just started book one. I was TRYING to read The Chosen One by Anya Bast..omg - I can't get past the first 10 pages. Everytime I start reading it I start thinking about stuff I should be doing...NOT GOOD.

All right, keep in mind that I don't get to read as much as I would like so I know that I'm missing out on a lot of great stuff. However, here are some of my favorites at the moment.
1. Kim Harrison -- Rachel Morgan Series 2. Rachel Vincent -- Shifters series 3. Vicki Pettersson -- Zodiac series 4. Simon Green -- Nightside series 5. Jim Butcher -- Dresden series 6. Charlaine Harris -- Southern Vampires series

Kim Harrison's Hollows series (Rachel Morgan series) and the Beka Cooper young adult series by Tamora Pierce are tied. I absolutely love these two series! Tamora Pierce is an author I started reading when I was eleven, so her books have been with me for a very long time. My favorite non-urban fantasy series is the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich. Those books make me laugh like no other! After that...I honestly don't try to rank books. But I will list the series, in no particular order, that I would go to the bookstore to purchase the very day they are released. Mercy Thompson series by Patricia Briggs Shifters series by Rachel Vincent Night Huntress series by Jeaniene Frost Dark Days series by Jocelynn Drake Zodiac series by Vicki Pettersson Dresden Files by Jim Butcher (I am currently working my way through this series) These are not all of them, but I'm running short on time and i need to go shopping! Soooo....more later?

oka, so not so much series, as just authors ... my top five authors that I will buy and devour anything by them ... Kim Harrison, Vicki Pettersson, Kelley Armstrong, Jocelynn Drake, and Carrie Vaughn ... mind, that's not in any particular order.

not me ... favorite authors are calculated by how many of an author's books I've read compared to how many I liked. Carrie is kinda falling down the list, but that's only cause I've gotten off my reading kick and haven't read the last couple yet. you get a foot up cause you've only got one book out, but I still loved it.

1. Kim Harrison -- Rachel Morgan Series 2. Dark Days-- by someone you might know 3. Mercy Thompson series -- Patricia Briggs 4. Charlaine Harris -- Southern Vampires series 5.Jim Butcher -- Dresden series 6. Kitty the werewolf series -- Carrie Vaughn 7. Rachel Vincent -- Shifters series it's really difficult to decide in fact, i love all those books or i wouldn't have read the entire series. I'm badly addicted to the Rachel Morgan series , it's a real pathology now! *need some Trent love*

I'm with you there ... I am in Trent withdrawal ... I seriously need more of his snarky elf ass. but I was at a signing with Ms. Kim and she gave a little tid bit away ... she has put Rachel and Trent in a car for a road trip together in a future book ... don't remember if she said it was the next one or just a future one. But I so cannot wait for that ... it'll be awesome.

Trent and Rachel in a car together.... Hmmm.... we'd be lucky if they didn't kill each other.
I don't think it's the next book. I think it's the one after that.

I luuurve me some Trent and Rachel. I seem to find that the two characters who hate each other always have the best chemistry. I thought Rachel and Trent were awesome together even when he had her trapped in the cage behind his desk! lol!
