Dorothy Sayers (of Lord Peter Whimsy fame) wrote a number of things
worth mentioning.  Plays (The Devil to Pay), a radio drama (The Man Born
to be King) and an illuminating translation of Dante's Divine Comedy. 
She also wrote a collection of essays called "The Mind of the Maker"
which has influenced me considerably.

Speaking of Chesterton, I have always been particularly fond of the
Father Brown detective stories.  They are the only such stories I know
of where a major criminal (Flambeau) is not chased and brought to
justice, but is converted. A very refreshing, and properly christian
goal.
