Sounds kind of kinky doesn't it? I actually need suggestions of authors
for two different lists and am positive yah'll can help me. First one is
not a fiction request but crosses over into the reading tastes of this
list, I believe. I will post completed lists back out to Fiction_L and
appreciate (in advance) any assistance offered. Ready, Set, Go...

1. Need suggestions for authors who write True Crime (non-fiction) such
as Ann Rule, Jack Olsen, Vincent Bugliosi, Gerald Posner & Joe McGinniss.
These all have more than one book but that isn't a requirement. Newer
authors would be great to add to the list.

2. Also need suggestions for authors who write Family Saga's, i.e.
Colleen McCollough, Barbara Taylor Bradford, John Jakes, Jeffery Archer
(Kane & Able novels) & Sidney Sheldon(? - Master of the Game?). One-shot
family saga novels or series (including the family name attached to the
series) will work but may need to differentiate between the two. I have
copies of the 'Family Saga' list from www.hlpl.on.ca & am checking other
sites for more. I am also using 'What do I Read Next?' and will be trying
'Novelist' (we just got it here) but would appreciate any suggestions,
especially more recent novels.

Again, thanks in advance.

What about The Valley of Decision (Marcia Davenport)? A brilliant detailing
of a family modelled on the early American industrial empires...from the
1950s, if I recall right.
