Are you asking for additional authors as recommendations or which of those on the list to read first?

If it's the latter, I'd say get into Banks. If it's the former, then add Alastair Reynolds to your equation. But then, this just reflects my own tastes.

Or go for a few anthologies from different periods, and see which stories/writers pique your interest, then follow up on those.... This is often a good way to get back into reading, or to discover new types of stories you'd enjoy....

You have a lot of books I also have on my shelf

Recommendations:

Joe Abercrombie - The Blade Itself.
Tad Williams - Shadowmarch.
James Barclay - Dawnthief.
Brandon Sanderson - The Way of Kings.
