More Book Talk!

Speaking of books, Book Club is coming up this Friday, and after hearing the lists people have given of their favorite books, I’m thinking I want to suggest something that is not by a white dude, just so we don’t start a trend of ’em. I have been evangelizing Alanna and may suggest Song of the Lioness by Tamora Pierce, though I’m also leaning toward her Terrier. Either one may upset some of the more status-conscious* folks in the group who don’t want to read—gasp—YA, though.
So! If I don’t manage to convert them to Pierceism, what non-whitedude fantasy author would you guys recommend I try instead? And which book of theirs?
*It is altogether possible that there are only one or two of these, since I haven’t gotten to know the folks in the group very well. But given my past experience with geek groups, Signs Point To Yes on having at least one.
