Oh, far too many.

First, of course, is the King of Fantasy Writing, J.R.R. Tolkien.
J.K. Rowling is exceptionally good.
C.S. Lewis's books (mainly Narnia) are nice because they present a different way of writing fantasy.
Brain Jacques (Redwall is good, but the plots are starting to get old, and the Castaways of the Flying Dutchman stories are genuis.)
Other authors I read occasionally are Lemony Snicket, Christopher Paolini (when I'm not annoyed at how clichéd Eragon is...), Lloyd Alexander (Prydain is awesome, but I haven't read enough of his books to put him on my "favorite" author's list), and Eoin Colfer.
