I saw him mentioned on a list of authors who are criminally underrated.

Ive now read 2 of his books and am on a third

He has been writing since the 70s.

I have read “little, big” and “engine summer” and I can’t believe how good the prose is and the books themselves

I’m reading an older work of his now, “beasts”

I believe he is best known for the aegypt series

Harold bloom included him with McCarthy, Pynchon, and Philip Roth has greatest living writers

His most recent book won la times best fantasy 2017

His books are very literary and aren’t beach reads

I love Little Big, but I've not checked out anything else. I'll move something if hours to the top of the list.

I haven't read it, but my friends advised me. How do you like the books you have read?
