I am more into "hard" SF, so my favourite authors are -
Larry Niven
Allen Steele
John Varley
Charlie Stross
Ken McLeod
Joe Haldeman
and a few others, but I have gone one for long enough now....
A SFER after my own heart.Love Richard Morgan to bits but not McLeod.

How about Iain Banks?C J Cherryh?L R Modesitt Jnr? They write hard SF but primarily about people.
