When posting about the recent sad passing of James Hogan and checking his bibliography, I discovered a bit to my surprise that across time I have read 13 novels authored by him. So I thought to do a list of authors I've read a minimum of 10 novels - or in a few cases novels + collections and in one case all non-fiction - list that I present below in alphabetical order.
There are more or less obvious abbreviations of the genres read by me from the respective author's work ordered by number of books (m = mainstream, adv = adventure, f=fantasy, thr=thrillers, hf = historical fiction, myst = mysteries).
There are 54 authors on the main list and 7 on the secondary list which contains authors who are not - or very little - translated in English as far as I know. As expected sf heavily dominates the main list.

Comments: There are four authors I've read 9 novels from and I expect I will read #10 next year - Jacqueline Carey (f,sf), Adam Roberts (sf), CS Friedman (f,sf), KJ Anderson (sf,f), while if Sean Russell (f) gets to write another fantasy novel, it will make 10 also since I read all his nine fantasy novels so far.
