It's sad that it's inevitable that Brooks will go down soon. As far as I can tell, he's had the longest running continuous release of books in the same world than anyone else. And is probably one of the more popular and well known and best selling authors on this list, which I only mention to point out the irony in some of the people voting him down here who voted up Tolkien in the other thread based on that criteria

Upvote this time goes to Lloyd Alexander. His works are pretty darn magical. Downvote to Hodgson. As influential as his work is on horror literature, I’m not sure it translates to D&D.

I want to upvote Lynch, but since the Gentlemen Bastards series remains unfinished, I can’t bring myself to do it.

Has, not had. Brooks is still writing and still publishing books in the Shannara series. He published the second book in his "Fall of Shannara" series earlier this year, and the conclusion is scheduled to be published next year. At his book signing last July, he said that it will be the final Shannara story going forward...his emphasis...so there will most likely be more pre-quels and tangential stories in the future.

As for non-Shannara stuff, he mentioned a new novel in the works for his Landover series, and he read an excerpt from a completely new cyberpunk-ish novel he is working on called "Street Freaks." He also said there might be more Word and Void, but he's not working on it at the moment.

"We (George R. R. Martin) are both published by Del Rey," Terry said, "Except that I actually publish my books."

How can you not like this guy?

Brooks, Terry 8 So, Brooks is easily one of the worst writers from this and the previous list, on a technical "using words" and "constructing narrative" aspect: it saddens me that somebody would downv vote good writers in his place, and it saddens me further that folks who were upvoting Tolkien in the other thread would do the same for Brooks. Get him outta here!
