Neil Gaiman is one of those authors who I've heard a lot about but I have never read anything seriously. I wanted to, but any time I've picked up random bits of it I haven't been able to follow it at all and the way it is written just gives me the feeling that it's one of those things that are overly complicated just for the sake of being complicated. But that's just my odd opinion. :)
Oh yes! And I didn't even tell you what I was reading, which was sort of the point of this discussion. I started to organize my collection last weekend and I came across an old three part series that I loved so I'm re-reading that. It's Chosen by Mark Millar. It's pretty amazing, but I've always had a bit of an interest in religious works of any kind.
